Chennai:10.05.2020

For almost 50 days of the Covid-imposed lockdown, our factories have remained shut, academic schedules upset, malls and theatres locked and infrastructure work stalled. The virus has stopped us in our tracks. But not forever.

As pressure mounts on industries and the government to get back to business, it is time to not just weigh the pros and cons of exiting the lockdown, but also tactical ways to tread the path ahead.

Doing just that will be policy makers, industry captions and experts from diverse fields at ‘Reboot Tamil Nadu’, a virtual conclave being organised by The Times of India from Monday to Saturday, between 10am and 12.45pm. The six-day conclave will cover the segments of manufacturing, agriculture, healthcare, education, real estate, retail, small industries, IT/ITES, logistics, hospitality and entertainment.

On the inaugural day, the first session on industries, ‘Driving past the Covid curve’ will see N Srinivasan, vice-chairman & MD of India Cements, in discussion with Satyakam Arya, MD&CEO, Daimler India Commercial Vehicles and Sasikumar Gendham, MD, Salcomp Manufacturing India Private Limited. The second session, ‘From farm gate to front door’ will have TN agricultural secretary Gagandeep Singh Bedi sharing thoughts with other panelists R V Bhavani, director, agriculture-nutritionhealth program – MSSRF and Ravichandran Purushothaman, president, Danfoss India.

The sessions will be webcast live on The Times of India, Chennai’s Facebook page www.facebook.com/ChennaiTOI , besides our other digital platforms.
