Hi Sandeep,
Certainly, disseminating and sharing knowledge is a central concern of conferences. However, I've found them very beneficial for networking purposes ... I've met several co-authors through attending conferences.
Have a great day!

Hi,
The conferences and science events are considered the informal communication of science, in which a researcher can meet other scientists, exchange important information with them, find a researcher to collaborate with, and listen to new ideas and approaches to problem solving.

Possibility of meeting of researchers of a certain research field, learning about recent developments, and feedback and critical evaluation can also be obtained immediately.
Thanks Prof. Avishag Gordon and Prof. Mahesh Kumar for your valuable suggestions.

Conferences and Workshops are met to train the trainers. We equipped ourselves from conferences, make the right connections, informed about the latest discoveries in our field and related fields, exposure and many more.
An academic Conference, Workshops and Symposium are a conference for researchers to present and discuss their work. Together with academic or scientific journals, conferences provide an important channel for exchange of information between researchers. Conferences are usually organized either by a scientific society or by a group of researchers with a common interest.
What is the role of scientific events such as conferences, workshops ?
Conferences are more for research outcomes sharing, knowledge sharing, networking etc. Whereas workshops are more for training, learning & brainstorming. In some conferences, workshops are embedded as part of the events etc.
Meeting people you have heard about and researchers in own field.
Conferences and workshops have been well used to bring research findings to practitioners. They give the opportunity of knowledge sharing and learning from new researches. But in any case, we can not put in the margins the tourism aspect, which is not so bad especially for those (researchers) who are full time under the pressure of work.

It depends upon the history and the aim of the organizer. If the organizer is dedicated and keen to make the conference or the event an added value, he will be careful in selecting topic, filtering the participants and keynote speakers and therefore gathering of scientists and researchers will drive big change into the topic. If it of commercial nature, it will be an opportunity to fund raising to the organization. Apart from both cases, conferences and events are outstanding social opportunity for participants to meet and exchange knowledge and experience and also promoting their affiliations.
