Thank You for attending the Girls in ICT day 2013
Dear Ms. Narasimhan,
On behalf of ITU-APT Foundation of India and CMAI, I take this opportunity to thank you for your precious time and for participating in the panel discussion at the "Girls in ICT Day 2013", held on 7th May 2013 at FICCI Auditorium, Tansen Marg, New Delhi. Your thoughtful deliberation on the subject was well appreciated and encouraged by the participants. The opening address by...Rita Teaotia, Addl, Secretary, DoT and concluding address by ... Eun-Ju Kim, Regional Director, ITU Regional Office in Asia Pacific had added a great significance to the programme.

The programme was a great success and over 150 participants including international dignitaries, ambassadors, ministers from foreign countries, students, young professionals, civil society & government representatives and the industry acknowledged the awards given to young girls who have contributed in the development of ICT and made a difference with their untiring enthusiasm, determination and working against all odds to make a difference.

The success of the programme has encouraged us largely as this was the first time the event was celebrated in India and henceforth we plan to celebrate it on an annual basis and pay our tribute to the young women achievers in the field of ICT.

We once again thank you for your valuable contribution and look forward to your continued support in future.

Thanking You,
Anil Prakash
Secretary General
