Finalists at Stompernet@ NEEV '07

I am back after a rather long sabbatical :-).

SCMHRD organized its annual management fest NEEV '07 last weeked from 15th to 17th of December 2007.. It was a great event, a mix a some management gyaan along with Rock and Indipop and ofcourse loads and loads of FUN!!!

Aditya, Ajay and I, The Team "TripleA", had participated in Stompernet, the IT Marketing Game organised at NEEV. We also managed to make it to the finals of the event (thanks to the gyan on Google search logic given by Ajay to the organizers :-) ). The work required for the 1st stage was absolutely zilch as compared to the task they gave us for the finals. They wanted us (we were the consultants) to come up with three business plans (Yeah you read right ...Three), two of them had to be developed on two ideas given by organizers to us, while the third one had be a something from us. We were then supposed to suggest which idea out of the three should the company pursue. During NEEV, we had to present theB-Plans to the panel of judges, who were industry experts. Though we did not end up as winners, I would say we did a decent job considering the time we had.

Anyways, apart from participating in events, I was a part of the organising team of "Tantra - The Classic B-Plan Contest", organised by the e-cell. The major work for this was the printing and coding of the B-plans we got. We had a distinguished panel of judges for the event and they made sure that the finalists had a hard time.

NEEV also had a performance by "Euphoria", a Battle of college Bands and a DJ Night as a part of the informal events going on.

NEEV turned out to be 3 days of fun and a good break for the academic rigour.
