Venue
The conference is held on the campus of the Indian Institute of Science in Bengaluru, with the main sessions in the J. N. Tata Auditorium.
The auditorium
J. N. Tata Auditorium
The auditorium sits within the IISc campus at Bengaluru 560 012. It hosts the plenary lectures and the main sessions, while parallel tracks use the seminar rooms around it.
Registration, the travel desk and the poster boards are all within a short walk of the auditorium, so delegates rarely need to leave the campus during the day.
Getting here
How to reach the campus
By air
Bengaluru is served by an international airport. The campus is roughly thirty five kilometres from the terminal. A prepaid taxi counter and app based cabs are available on arrival, and a city bus service runs towards the city every fifteen minutes.
By rail
The city has two main railway terminals. The central station is about seven kilometres from the campus, while the Yeshwantpur junction is about two kilometres away. Taxis and autorickshaws are available at both.
By road
The central bus stand sits opposite the central railway station. The campus is well known locally, so a driver will recognise it by name. Allow extra time during the morning and evening peaks.
Tip. Keep the campus name written down for your driver. The institute is widely known by the short name Tata Institute among local taxi operators.
Foreign exchange
The Indian rupee is the only currency accepted in ordinary transactions. Carry enough rupees for basic expenses, and keep the slips from any currency conversion or cash withdrawal so that leftover rupees can be converted back before departure.
More on travel
Visa notes, foreign exchange services on campus and letters of invitation are collected on the travel page.
