Infusion is a strong reminder that there is another side to a B School life than academics and exams. It is the largest extra-curricular event conducted in the institute and these two days and nights are when we switch into the ‘super-talented’ mode and suddenly realise that the awesomeness of the campus has just reached it peak. Also, this is an opportunity for everyone to juxtapose themselves against the best ones of this country.
The previous version of Infusion was received with much enthusiasm. So far, 100+ colleges have sent their registrations for various events, as the countdown reaches 1 more day to go, and a lot many more are expected.
So it is infusion season, jump on the bandwagon, get into the spotlight, and let the overflowing cornucopia of talents mesmerize the crowd!
