The ISP policy was announced last November. The Indian ISP industry was poised for take-off and was the subject for much discussion within industry circles. While optimists predicted a boom phase for the industry, there were also murmurs of dissension, which spoke of the need for alternate gateways, a level playing field, greater clarity and reduced dependence on the government.

These topics and much more were brought to the forefront in great detail during the course of India's first and most comprehensive event for the Indian ISP industry - "ISP India'99". Attended by 1000+ decision-makers from the corporate and government across the country, and having strongly attracted the attention of the entire business community, ISP India'99 went a long way in creating awareness about the fledgling Indian ISP industry and also succeeded in raising questions about the future of the industry.

The most frequently asked questions in the year since privatization have been: Is the government serious about Internet proliferation in India? When will bandwidth and cost cease to be an issue? What does the future hold for ISPs and the users? The answers to these questions and much, much more will be made available to you at ISP India'2000. The second edition of India's most comprehensive conference addressing the needs of the Indian ISP industry will be held at the Taj Palace Convention Center, New Delhi, January 20-22, 2000.

This conference and trade show presents your organization with a wonderful opportunity to stay abreast of the latest developments and changes governing the Indian ISP Industry.
