At IIT, we believe in simplifying things to create a better future, a better existence and a better world.
As our principle suggests, our prime motive is to inspire, innovate and transform life to a simpler form - to create a better and brighter future. It's not an easy task - to be simple. Infact, it takes a genius to be simple – as even Albert Einstein testified.

Hence, the Pan IIT Global conference is a get together of the greatest minds in the world - to create a better and a simpler world. More than 3000 IIT alumni from around the globe join hands with around 2000 IIT students and global leaders from various countries, across various fields - to work together.
Every year, a global conference has been organized, alternating between India and the US. The strength and theme has been enhanced each year, and new initiatives launched, to further the objectives of the organization and to create the best leaders.
This year the IIT Alumni 2008 Global Conference is being held at IIT Madras, from 19th to 21st December 2008. It is expected to be an impressive IIT alumni event which will focus on one objective - to Inspire IITians to Innovate and Transform India and hence the world.
So this is the biggest opportunity to project your brand as a thought leader...
