Hello Gustaf,

I have something else to share with you about the development of services that the IEEE Education Society will provide to our members. It's a conference in India. I hope to meet many IEEE Education Society members who attend.

I want to develop an annual conference in India that focuses on the mission of the IEEE Education Society. I want that conference to be accessible and inexpensive. I have been very fortunate to have enlisted several leaders in IEEE India leaders are leading this effort. The leaders of the IEEE Kerala Section and the IEEE India Council are supporting this effort. Now I can just get out of their way and move onto the next item (note: aside from staying married while holding the office of president).

Gustaf, hopefully this conference can be held simultaneously in several venues throughout India thus easing the cost and logistics of travel. We also hope to have speakers attend this event via teleconference from outside India. This first conference will be excellent and will also be a starting point; from there we will build and evolve this terrific conference.
