The faculty members and current students of XIMB also attend the event which provides a platform for the XIMB Alumni to reinforce the bond with their Alma Mater, meet the faculty who once taught them, network with their colleagues and share their experiences with the current batch students who are undergoing their summer internship in these cities. They also provide constructive suggestions and ideas on how to take the institute to greater heights and strengthen the brand XIMB. The current students also get an opportunity to understand the industry expectations. Apart from rejuvenating the bond of Alums and the institute, Sanidhya also plays an important role in alignment of institute curriculum with the industry.
