No life will be left untouched by

the digital revolution which brings

both, great opportunities as well

as risks and both, the

opportunities as well as the risks

are frequently connected to

questions of sustainability and the

desirability of consequences

technology brings to humanity.

The theme of the 2018 Sixth

Annual Humanistic Management

Conference therefore is

Technology, Sustainability,

Humanity and where better to

discuss this topic than in one of

the world's prominent tech hubs,

Bengaluru, India on the birthday

of Mahatma Gandhi, one of the

most impactful voices of a life in

dignity for all.

The aim of this conference is to

enhance our understanding of the

relationship between technology

and Humanistic Management and

provide a platform for exchange

to our highly esteemed speakers,
