Gala launch events in Bengaluru and Mumbai

The Slack India Launch will kick off with a gala launch event in Bengaluru and Mumbai on April 5 and 7, 2022 respectively. The launches will feature keynotes by Stewart Butterfield, CEO and Co-founder, Slack; and Rahul Sharma, AVP and Country Manager, Slack India.

Stewart has been an entrepreneur, designer and technology leader, usually all at once – for more than 20 years. He was named one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World by Time Magazine and Technology Innovator of the Year by the Wall Street Journal.

Rahul meanwhile, is a technology industry executive with over 20 years of experience, with extensive background and experience in building and scaling businesses delivering high impact results for SaaS organisations.

The events will also feature specially curated panels of ecosystem leaders who will discuss how they are rethinking digital-first work, and share their first hand perspectives on the future of work.

The speakers will discuss how they are rethinking digital-first work. They will delve on how to break silos, embrace flexibility and automate work, and share tips on connecting people across time zones, physical spaces, and even across companies.

The launch events will also include networking, and live entertainment with a music band, cocktails, and dinner.
