A celebration of glamour and poise, elegance and glitz, Jashn beckons all charismatic gentlemen and ladies to get ready for the fashion extravaganza. Come evening, we have none other than the dashing Sushrii Shreya Mishraa, Miss India United Continents 2014, hand-picking our winners!
Manfest-Varchasva is the annual Business, Sports & Cultural Festival of IIM Lucknow. The 4-day event is a confluence of Manfest, the Business Conclave and Varchasva, the Sports and Cultural Festival. Some of the highlights of the fest shall be the Sports events and the Corporate Luncheon, attended in the past by luminaries such as Mr. Harsh Mariwala, Dr. D. Subbarao and Mr. Kishore Biyani, and our headlining Pro-Shows that have featured national and international Pop and Rock bands such as RDB, Euphoria and like Pain of Salvation. Accompanying these shall be CSR activities including a Lucknow City Run, some of the most fiercely contested cultural events such as “Jashn”, the Fashion Parade, and the most challenging management events across India. It is the only event of its kind in the country, and the most awaited college event in campuses across India.
The contingent from IIM Udaipur has made the institute proud at the Annual sports fest of IIM Ahmedabad, Shaurya, which was held recently in the hallowed environs of the esteemed college. The team participated in six sports and the performance in these events helped the institute clinch an overall top ten finish amongst the umpteen numbers of teams. This was largely due to the brilliant performances which eventually led to third place finishes in football, Table Tennis and badminton.
Are you a willing to explore new avenues? Do you want to expand your purviews? Do feel that you have a potential in you which you can showcase to the world?
The annual business fest of Goa Institute of Management, Samriddhi, came around this year with full throttle. There were 3 days full of competitions, workshops, speaker sessions and a conclave. The students of GIM decided on the theme being “Unbroken” to celebrate the spirit of never giving up, despite all odds. The speakers were impressed with the theme because the spirit of being unbroken is the most important and, often, the most underrated one. The various highlights of this year’s Samriddhi were as follows:
Indian Institute of Foreign Trade’s Kolkata campus organised Vivaan, a three day event on 4th, 5th and 6th September. The event kicked off in style on Friday at the sprawling new campus of IIFT. Under the theme “Prism of Opportunities :India and the world”, the three-day business event lived-up to its motto of providing a platform for budding managers and inspired the students from colleges across India to showcase their mettle to the world. It began with a commencement address by Centre Head Dr. K. Rangarajan. The first session was on the theme ‘Realising India’s Trade potential’. Sanjeev Nandwani, Development Commissioner, SEZ's at Ministry of Commerce and Industry; Nikharv Shah, Head of Marketing, Cockett Marine Oil; Amita Khurana, Head-Exports at Tata Steel and a distinguished alumnus of IIFT; Jonathan T. Ward, Principal Commercial Officer, U.S. Consulate General Kolkata, provided valuable inputs on how to strengthen the pillars of trade. He also kicked off the subsequent session on ‘Realising India’s Supply Chain Potential’. Shoummo K. Acharya, MD CEO, eTrans Solutions, Vikas Sarangdhar, Partner at Target Consulting LLP; Siddhartha Roy, Head of Operations and Supply Chain , Oxford University Press; and Pramod Kumar Srivastava, CEO, Allied ICD Services Limited, were the other esteemed panellists who gave a succinct overview on the challenges with the logistics of today. The last session on Day 1 was on the theme ‘Transformation of Vision into Action’. Ratan Jalan, Ex-CEO of Apollo Lifestyle; and Kumar Ankit, Co-founder of Green Leaf Energy, presented their views on passion, and how pursuing it can take one to higher altitudes in life. The sessions on the second day were equally enriching in terms of content. Indian Economy is a tricky thing to analyse. So the first session on Sunday was on the theme ‘Indian Economy: Crouching Tiger or Sauntering Elephant’. Dr. Prachi Mishra, Specialist Adviser, Reserve Bank of India, Dr. Soumya Kanti Ghosh, Chief Economic Advisor,SBI; Dr. Mukul Mitra, Corporate Trainer. Anurag Batra, Chairman, Businessworld, made an insightful and interactive presentation on pursuing entrepreneurship. Varun Sharma, Industry Head, Google, and a distinguished alumnus of IIFT presented his views on the future of Marketing. Vittesh Kalambi, Practice Lead,Absolutdata elaborated on the relevance of analytics in the digital age. The event, on the whole, was an irrepressible mix of information and inspiration and enabled the “germination of innovative and productive ideas” that will help shape the policies of tomorrow.
