It was a pleasure listening to Mr. Sanjay Negi, Delivery Director & Business Head-Financial Services, HCL Technologies who shared his thoughts on "The burgeoning role of technology in shaping the world around us" with our management students. His talks focussed on the influence technology has made on us, be it in our personal or professional lives. He touched upon various interesting aspects of technology, right from its evolution to the significance of data in our life, to the influence technology has made on all the domains of business viz. Finance, Marketing, HR, and Supply Chain and where technology will lead us to in the years 2030 and 2050. He said that in the days to come access to the internet would be the fundamental right of a citizen as it is currently in few nations of the world. He concluded his session by exhorting students to work on developing good technical (domain knowledge), communication, and interpersonal skills to be successful in the corporate world besides being a good team player.
