On behalf of the organizaon and the Conference Commiee we invite you to come and grace the fesvies, commercial exhibits, social and cultural events and the women, youth and senior cizen focused events. The power of integraon and unity leading to our success as a community is the central idea as represented through our conference theme "Ikyata - Naipunyam and Purogamanam" - standing for Unity, Skill and Progress. The invitees list is an ensemble of the most popular proponents and stalwarts of various fields without compromise. The cultural, literary, women’s forum, alumni, CME, business, youth and spiritual seminars and Srinivasa Kalyanam ( with deies and priests from Tirupa) are each individually so imposing and overpowering that they posed a great challenge with the schedule as we tried to minimize parallel events to provide comprehensive mulfaceted entertainment to all our patrons. The 22nd TANA Conference is intended to be the aconable showcase of the intellectual, social and cultural confluence of the Telugu people across the Telugu States and North America to show solidarity and commitment to bring our common goals and dreams to fruion. We are striving to provide the best possible experience and would be always available to you should you need any addional informaon. Please contact the nearest Informaon Desk/Guest Services desk for addional informaon.
