Happenings - GIMS 2012

The Second Edition of the Great Indian Marketing Summit 2012 saw not only a star cast of speakers but also an equally evolved and interesting audience. 

With around 70 participants covering a range of industry segments from IT to healthcare, manufacturing to services, the marketers in Chennai made it a stimulating Saturday!

Jessie Paul's 360 degree marketing plan, Abraham's Alapatt's (Future Generali) Customer Relations insights, Dell's successful listening posts (KK) and Chandrabhan Tiwari's (India Cements) personal journey in marketing dotted the first half of the session. The second half of the day was no less power packed and started with detailed and informative sessions from Ramkumar Ramamurthy (Cognizant) and Himanshu Goyal (IBM) leading to panel discussions on Outsourcing Marketing and Making Social Media Productive and closing with the super session by Mind Reader - Nakul Shenoy. Panel on Marketing Outsourcing included Vivek Agarwal of D&B, Priyanka Nayak - Lenovo, Vinod Harith of CMOAxis. The Social Media Gliteratti were on the second panel discussion moderated by Karthik S of Flipkart (better known as Beastoftraal) and had on it Arunav Sinha of Yahoo! Dhiman Mukerji from Linkedin, Haroon Bijli -TCS and Srinivas Mothey from One97.

All in all, a successful event, much awaited by marketers in Chennai who got a chance to network with their peers and get practitioner insights from the leaders.
