The 80:20 rule<\/h2>\n

When selecting speakers, it is recommended that locals be given preference over out of towners.\u00a0<\/em>The general consensus is to try and keep the outsiders limited to roughly 20% of the sessions while letting the local speakers take up 80% of the sessions. It makes complete sense.

\nThe question is, who<\/strong> is a local for us?<\/p>\n

Simple answer: people from Pune. Right answer: You’ll get it after this<\/p>\n

Quick Quiz<\/h2>\n

    So, if you live anywhere in India, you are a local for us, although we’d always give preference to a Punekar, then a Maharashtrian (i.e. someone who lives in Maharashtra) and then other Indians.<\/p>\n

    We’ve even included Hindi and Marathi so all of us locals can have clearer and more meaningful interactions this September.<\/p>\n

    So, if you or someone you know have anything to share with us, why not let us know<\/a>.<\/p>\n
