Think Again Conclave, BITS Pilani : ウィキペディア英語版 | Think Again Conclave, BITS Pilani
The Think Again Conclave is the official guest lecture series of APOGEE, the annual technical fest of BITS Pilani, usually held in the month of March. Think Again is everything but an ordinary conventional lecture series. It aims at capturing the ideas and thoughts of those who have dared to think differently and out of the box in their field of interest. Since its inception in 2012, this lecture series has been a platform for an assortment of speakers ranging from Jeff Lieberman of “Time Warp” fame to (Pawan Agarwal ), the CEO of Mumbai Dabbawalas. It was also with Think Again that the first Ig Nobel Prize Winners' conference in India was organized. Other prominent personalities who have attended Think Again include adman Piyush Pandey and 'Chief Belief Officer' of Future Group Dr. Devdutt Pattanaik. ==Conception==
Guest lectures are an integral part of any technical festival and before 2012, APOGEE had featured several famous names like Jimmy Wales and Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam as speakers. For the 2012 edition however, it was decided to introduce a twist in the lecture series by giving it a touch of “out of the box” thoughts. With an aim to empower engineering students with face-to-face talks delivered by exceptional achievers who dared to stray from the oft-beaten path, the Think Again Conclave was conceived and started. The name reflects its nature in making the audience think again about conventionally perceived concepts. The first edition was an astounding success with an audience of 2000 to bear witness to every lecture in the jam-packed BITS, Pilani central auditorium. The positive response to the talks made Think Again a permanent fixture in the subsequent editions of APOGEE.
