CTOtalk was a rather unique experience. It was very fulfilling to present a deep technical narrative interleaved with the right mix of business motivations. The interactions were just brilliant. And, talk about sticking to the theme - I couldn't tell if the audience were pleased with my talk or the splendid movie popcorn they were served!

The tech industry has so much to gain from collaborative knowledge sharing platforms such as CTOTalk! Thank you for creating this platform for technologists to come together and share their perspectives. Great to see it go online and spread the knowledge around even more!

CTOtalk was an extremely refreshing experience because of the level of intellectual engagement the crowd demonstrated. And it was an eye opener to the small but fast growing new age consumer software engineering community in Chennai!

We have had a great journey and learnings building large scale distributed systems at Dream11 serving millions of concurrent users. It was great sharing these experiences with a highly enthusiastic audience from the Indian tech community.

Much needed forum to democratize access to knowledge sharing by the real practitioners. Glad to see the endeavour to make it borderless by going online.

CTOtalk helped answer many burning questions that we encountered during our scale up phase and the post talk Q&A was worth as much as the talk itself!

CTOs of young startups or aspiring CTOs did not have a forum to learn from the best in the field till CTOtalk happened. I have attended a few sessions have had immense learnings on how to architect for scale.
Shyam Sundar Nagarajan
Founder - GoFloaters
I think it is a brilliant idea. While there are a lot of conversations taking place at the software development level, there are none at the CTO level. We need different levels of conversations on technology.
Dorai Thodla
CTO & Technopreneur
I’d like to thank CTOtalk for taking this initiative to bring CTOs onto a common forum. This helps all of us to network, exchange ideas and optimise IT for business needs.
Kanthanathan

Excellent interactions and thought provoking questions from the audience both during and after the presentation. Loved the experience!

Co Founder - Chargebee
A High for a speaker is relevant, inquisitive & critical audience, CTOtalk had them all. I really enjoyed my time engaging with developers, founders and leaders at CTOtalk. I spent more time post the talk learning from others than the overall time spent on talk. This reflects highly of community CTOtalk is building. Best wishes to take this further.
