Theme: Who Created Thought ?

The theme evokes a sense of bringing about change through one’s own ability. It's not just about knowing what’s necessary, rather having the courage and zeal to follow through. The theme is abstract to facilitate speakers from different fields and understand their prerogative, engaging the audience to think in a different dimension. It is a reflection of one’s upliftment in life, post struggles and failures. When faced with a challenge, basic biology outlines two kinds of responses – fight and flight. Both these responses manifest into a second chance to reimagine yourself, to upsurge again, rise higher than before and stand stronger in front of the whole world but what drives this? who facilitates this? that is the mystery that the diverse speakers will aim to unfold.
