Office in India
The Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), is organizing an international conference/workshop on 10-11 November 2005 in New Delhi, coinciding with the launch of the W3C Office in India. Topics such as Internationalization, Mobile Web, Semantic Web, SVG, Voice XML and Multimodal Interaction will be presented by both W3C experts and Indian researchers and industrials.
The objective of the event is to create awareness about the future developments in Web technologies amongst the Indian IT developer's community, researchers and institutions to leapfrog to software products and services based on international standards. The W3C Office in India is the fifteenth W3C Office in the world, and its launch follows the recent introduction of W3C's new fee structure for organizations in developing countries.
