Delivering the keynote National Association of Software & Service Companies (Nasscom) President Som Mittal said “remote infrastructure management services have significant impact on global infrastructure management services. The sector has been major growth driver for Indian IT services industry in the past few years and has the potential to become third largest revenue contributor to IT services industry by 2020.”

We will support the industry through its RIM forum,” he added.
