In the Deep End: Dataquest to Host DQ DeepTech, India’s Largest Deep Technologies Event

Dataquest, one of India’s top five magazine brands, known as the Bible of India IT, will host the country’s largest Deep Tech event, the DQDeepTech. The second edition of the event will bring experts, stakeholders, government officials and academia across industries together on one platform for thought leadership on the cutting-edge of technology.

At the first edition of DQDeepTech last year, the event witnessed 3,000 attendees, over 100 speakers and support from 18 industry associations. Given the success of the event, Dataquest has returned with the second edition, with the theme, ‘Unlocking the Next Tech Frontier’.

India has emerged as one of the leaders in deep tech, with startups and large, established companies alike working to achieve major breakthroughs in deep tech across industry verticals. As such, there is a need to build an ecosystem to properly nurture and develop India’s rapidly growing deep tech sphere.

As such, DQDeepTech represents our resolve to help build that ecosystem. In this year’s event, Dataquest will host industry representatives, thought leaders, government officials and other key stakeholders across manufacturing, banking, telecom, healthcare, AR/VR, robotics, cybersecurity, and other industries. The leaders from the industries will engage in discussions, fireside chats, keynotes, presentations, and other interactive sessions.

Attendees who participates will get to attend exclusive sessions, showcases, events, fireside chats, and keynotes from illustrious personalities from industry, academia, start-ups, government, and other key stakeholders within the industry. The event has been conceptualized with an aim to steer conversations towards deep technologies like AI/ML, the future of work, automation, robotics, IoT/AIoT/Industry 4.0, Blockchain, NFTs and Cryptocurrency, autonomous systems, autonomous vehicles and V2X, 5G, 6G, satcom, and the future of networking, healthtech, and so on.

In short, at DQDeepTech, the attendees will get to experience India’s deep tech ecosystem firsthand, with the best in the field. What’s more, DQDeepTech represents a great opportunity to make connections within the deep tech ecosystem, and interact with the leaders and the stakeholders.
