Questions about the India Lab
1. Why is it called a lab? Isn’t it just a conference? It is a lab because it is interactive with everyone contributing and engaged in co-creating ideas. While there are presentations and demonstration, they are a minimal part of the design. A saying used in the Forum is: Everyone a teacher; everyone a Learner. The goal is always connecting, collaborating, and learning together.
