QuestionPro is a company that has always been characterized by its innovative aspect and its passion for exploring and incorporating new technologies into its industry. Following this spirit, we launched QuestionPro Thrive, a space to explore and share these ideas.
In the heart of India, Pune, a dynamic convergence of minds unfolded on February 8, 2020, at the MCCIA Trade Tower. QuestionPro held its first edition of Thrive, an event that brought together IT professionals and created an environment where ideas that would redefine the next generation in the technological field are shared and discussed.
From the moment attendees stepped into the venue, they were enveloped in an atmosphere buzzing with disruption and energy. The day kicked off with registration and a vibrant coffee bar, setting the stage for what would be an immersive experience in the realms of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Microservices.

The lineup of speakers read like a who’s who in the tech industry. Archanaa Ravikumar from ThoughtWorks, Saurav Dhungana from Leapfrog Technology, Angad Rajput, and Vijay Tambe from QuestionPro took center stage, each bringing their unique insights and expertise to the forefront. Their presentations delved into cutting-edge topics such as scalable microservices, AI applications in the real world, and reactive programming using Vertx.
By sharing their experiences and perspectives, the audience was able to benefit from a new panorama from industry experts.
One of the event’s highlights was the hands-on workshop on Machine Learning and AI. Participants had the opportunity to engage directly with these transformative technologies, gaining practical skills that are increasingly crucial in today’s digital landscape.
Throughout the day, networking played a pivotal role. Attendees connected with like-minded professionals, fostering new collaborations and expanding their professional networks. The interactive quiz and prizes added a spirited element, creating moments of friendly competition and camaraderie.
“The atmosphere was electric,” remarked one attendee. “It’s inspiring to see so many passionate individuals coming together to explore the future of technology.”
The event was not just about learning and networking; it was about envisioning what lies ahead in the tech industry. As Shrikant Shinde, Senior Director of Engineering at QuestionPro, aptly put it during his welcome presentation, “Today is not just about today; it’s about shaping the possibilities of tomorrow.”
“We conceived the idea of Thrive a couple of months back in one of our internal learning sessions, where we wanted to interact and get like-minded people in a room with some great sessions. With a mission of meeting new people, learning from experts, and growing together, it was satisfying to see that our first step was definitely going in the right direction.
