I had the pleasure of being a participant at QFW 2011. Some of my observations are
- We had a pleasant welcome by the Coordinator Dr Sastry and interaction by Director IDRBT Dr Sambamoorthy. Infact the Director's remarks are very relevant and interesting.
- Inaugural address by Dr Subir Gokarn focused on financial system design and macro perspectives and how quantitative models can be addressed to real life problems.
- There was a fascinating overview by Dr Aparna Gupta of RPI on the Quant Finance.
- Dr RNS Gupta of IIT- Kanpur had given a talk on probability and statistics.
- Very good intro on ANN by Dr Ravi of IDRBT
- I had nice interaction with Dr Aparna Gupta of RPI, made friends with lot of participants like Dr Prasad from IIM Indore, Crisil and Other participants from XLRI School of Business and IGIDR, MSE.
- One faculty member from IIMB was very active and posed lot of interesting questions. She is from the area of Investments which I had later found out from interactions with her.
