"To make emerging technologies meaningful, you need purpose. And what can be a better and bigger purpose than saving our planet", said Pankaj Vyas, CEO & MD, Siemens Technology and Services Pvt. Ltd. at the IET Future Tech Congress 2022.
"The IET Future Tech Congress 2022 saw the gathering of the technology leaders from the region. More than 11 government functionaries, policy makers and ministers participated in the dialogue. I would like to express my gratitude to the Chief Guest, Shri Suresh Prabhu, our presenting partner Siemens, and all the dignitaries and speakers for their valuable insights. Undoubtedly the Future Tech Congress has become the regions most important confluence of tech stakeholders," said Shekhar Sanyal, Country Head and Director, IET India.

Speaking on the success of the event, Dr. Rishi Bhatnagar, Chair-IET Future Tech Panel said, "The advent of future technologies is here and embracing them is unavoidable. For instance, the automotive industry will be 80% software and only 20% hardware, not too long into the future. We are increasingly moving towards hyper-personalisation and hyper-localisation, and businesses are in dire need of a technology roadmap to navigate challenges that the future will bring. The IET Future Tech Congress 2022 truly brought together policy makers, academia, industry experts, business leaders and start-ups on a single platform to discuss this theme. It was wonderful to see the excitement over the two days, with discussions spanning across the entire lifecycle of future technologies - from innovation to implementation to advancement."
