I would lean for option 3, intuit which has a decent big cafeteria ( accom 150-200) ppl and also has separate rooms ( with projectors ?) for parallel sessions. I attended the last barcamp there.
IIITB is again a good option but slightly far which might discourage the city crowd from coming. Less time to do PR to pull people till Electronics city , IMHO. But if we can set up things faster, yes.
TERI can accommodate ~100-120 people and won't allow parallel sessions though.

Subject: * [Wikimedia-in-blr] Venue for Wiki X
Sent: * Thu, Dec 30, 2010 6:58:32 PM
Hi all,
Time is running out and we need to quickly decide upon the venue for Wiki X event.
Few options :-
1 ) TERI, near CIS can seat upto 100-150 will cost us 11.5 k. in the city but lesser Capacity, no seperate spaces for parallel tracks. 2 ) IIIT B, Electronic city - Huge auditorium can seat 300 and even more on other classrooms. Mostly might be free venue, IIITB students attending event and enthusiastic management but distance from city. 3 ) Intuit,Global village, ORR - Can seat upto 150-200 people mostly might be free, slightly out of city, but can attract "IT crowd".
Please let the list know of your opinions for us to decide on it sooner. Sooner the better :) Thanks.

Hello:
I'd go with a place as in town as possible but failing which, IIIT would be my choice.
There is also this place on Brunton Road:

And CIS have had an event there. It's pretty big but a little bit more expensive.
Thank you.
Best,

I did. It is available. For the full day on the 15th they will charge INR 80K with no charges for the preparatory setup that morning. It's a great space but a little out of our budget, me thinks.
Thank you.

At 80K, I agree too.

I saw PESIT and BMSCE on the list. Can anyone inquire at RVCE for the auditorium? I have little contacts there, but it seems good.

RV is not in a position to rent it, but no harm in trying
