The conference city has a unique position by virtue of the ability to seamlessly integrate its rich cultural heritage with a strong regional economic base. Bhubaneswar also plays an important role as a regional gateway to the Golden Tourist Triangle of Puri, Konark, and Chilika Lake. Its strategic geographic location along the East Coast of India, has positioned Bhubaneswar to serve as the gateway to Southeast Asia with easy access to existing and emerging ports, petrochemical and steel hubs at Paradeep, Kalinganagar, Dhamra and Gopalpur.

With both my hands joined together, I welcome you to experience a whole new level of conferencing wrapped with traditional harmony and extended hospitality at the ancient city of temples.
