Knowledge Shared is Knowledge Gained

Knowledge Exchange Goa

The 9th edition of Knowledge Exchange Goa is upon us again, sending us down the memory lane when the late Chief Minister Shri Manohar Parrikar underscored the significance of knowledge in transforming our destiny. Even though Mr Parrikar is no more with us, the words of wisdom he uttered at this very forum resonate with us even today. That’s the power of sharing knowledge, which also serves as the main theme of this edition of eGov Magazine.

Our cover story, ‘Sharing Knowledge Key to Transform India’, navigates through the journey of Knowledge Exchange forum as a unique platform for policymakers, industry leaders, innovators and thought leaders to express, share and deliberate on new ideas that are so critical to take India closer to become a knowledge-based society. It also delves into how experiences, innovative ideas and knowledge shared at the forum have been shaping up the developmental path of the country and its people.
