And it is an overpriced city, thanks to that. With even more crowded roads
and infrastructure.

I am sure you would prefer paying $350..500 for your hotel room instead of
$200++, besides the other costs (f&b, banquet etc) for doing the meeting
there?

And you'd need a venue of suitable size, to start with. Most of the venues
in bangalore are five star hotels and such, may not fit all of IGF into
them
