Belagavi Tech Meet-up, an informal meeting of IT entrepreneurs and professionals hailing from Belagavi on Saturday, seems to have rekindled hopes of developing the city into an IT hub.
As many as 327 entrepreneurs, tech investors, start-up founders and other interested people joined the meet held at Shagun Gardens on Khanapur Road. Registrations crossed 600, organisers said.
“It seems we have succeeded in attracting a sizeable crowd from across the country. This will ultimately lead to efforts towards exploring the potential to develop tier two cities into IT hubs,’’ said R.K. Patil of Vayavya Labs. It is a city-based IT company.
