Anil Kumble closes Microsoft Tech.Ed 2011 on a high

VARINDIA- INDIA'S FRONTLINE IT MAGAZINE

Fuelling the world cup fever further, Anil Kumble came as the surprise package at Microsoft's annual technology fair, Tech.Ed 2011. Adding to the tangible energy already pulsating at the Tech.Ed grounds, Kumble was here to deliver the closing keynote session on Friday 25, March 2011, addressing a 10,000 people audience (on-ground and online). While sharing notes on "Staying Ahead of the Game", Kumble wasn't talking purely cricket but reached out an enthusiastic community of young Indian techies largely consisting of developers and IT Pros and software architects.

Addressing this enthusiastic audience, Kumble said, "It takes more than individual talent and skills to succeed. Being able to understand and manage the environment one operates in is as important. Also, consistency of performance without taking eyes off the ball is required. Just because you have had some good games, you cannot get complacent and take things for granted. There is a lot to learn from Microsoft which has consistently performed and keeps pushing the boundaries of technological innovation."

However, this year at Tech.Ed 2011, Anil Kumble wasn't the only one who kept the Tech.Ed audience enthralled. The event saw brilliant keynote speakers from Microsoft leadership team sharing their insights on the latest tools and technologies that Microsoft has recently brought to the market.
