e-SYNCHRONY 2020
Synchrony is the flagship event of IIMA. It sets the tone for the year and also sets the expectations of youngsters from the local alumni. It was the first time that we organized Synchrony in virtual space!
“e-Synchrony 2020” was unique not because of the unusual circumstances. It was special since a large number of senior alumni volunteered to join the youngsters for discussion. It offered everyone an opportunity to interact with seniors.
Ashu Khullar (PGP’88 – CEO, Citibank India) and Sandeep Bhushan (PGP’97 – Director & Head, Global marketing Solutions, Facebook India) made very interesting opening remarks and observations from their own experience. Both conveyed very powerful tips for the audience in their inimitable style.
It was pleasing to hear the Speakers (with rich corporate experience from diverse background) and see them addressing the youngsters with passion and patience during the break-out sessions.
We are thankful to,
