Have you ever had a chance to see the top Indian Corporates under the same roof? Did you get to hear them at an event? And most importantly, have you ever been fortunate enough to not only talk to them but even interview them? Well here at Symbiosis Institute of Digital and Telecom Management (SIDTM), I got a chance to do it all.

What was the event about?

SIDTM hosted its Ninth International Telecom Seminar, Communiqué 19 on 21st and 22nd September 2019. It is the flagship telecom seminar that SIDTM hosts for the stalwarts of the industry to come and enlighten the students with their knowledge. Every year, the latest technological trends in the industry are considered and then a theme is formulated for the event. This year I got to be a part of a grand technological celebration.

How was I part of it?

Being a junior team member of the Branding committee of SIDTM, I was involved in the presentation of the event on social media platforms. I also went on the Student Interaction Program (as mentioned in my previous blog). I with my team sat late at night to make the flex unfurling videos. Then I also got to interview many corporates from various companies. I was nervous at the beginning as its very rare when you get to interact with such well-informed people, but it soon went away as all of them were so patient and kind to spare a few minutes and share their insights on the industry and our event. They were thrilled about the seamless execution of the event as a whole. The occasion was also graced by many alumni, who were excited to visit the beautiful Symbiosis campus again. It was a reunion for 2000 batch and they were delighted to meet their batchmates after so long. I also got a chance to interact with them. Below is the picture of me with the interview backdrop. I hope you like it!

A feeling that can’t be expressed in words

There are a few things in your life that you don’t believe until and unless you get the actual look and feel of it. International Telecom Seminar has been one such experience for me, here at SIDTM. I am very thankful to people who believed in me and trusted me with the responsibilities that I was given. I learned a lot from the first-hand experience of being a part of an event of such a huge grandeur. I hope that I can continue adding such remarkable experiences to my college life and get to learn from each one of them.
