“Being a cultural co-head, I gained a practical experience in my PGDM course through Samavesh. It is a unique platform to understand and interact with other colleges. These kinds of cultural activities help in building up confidence and help us in analyzing problems on the spot to get an immediate solution. Samavesh was a real responsibility and gained first hand experience of managing man power.”

Ravneet Singh Sachdeva, Junior Cultural Co-head

“Samavesh has been one of the finest experiences in short course of life. It has been one of the best management lessons. FIIB has given me a great platform in the form of Samavesh to showcase my leadership skills and learn so much more about how to work professionally .With the help of the faculty mentors, my senior heads (Vaishali Dhawan and Janis King) and other volunteers, we were able to make Samavesh a success story.”
