IIM K alumni meet at 'Sangam 2009'

Sangam 2009, the annual alumni meet of IIM Kozhikode was a remarkable and memorable affair this year. The annual alumni-fresher meet was held on May 23rd 2009. With the event being hosted at six cities across India it witnessed the highest attendance in the event history by alumni along with freshmen from the batch of 2011. The cities of Bangalore, Mumbai, New Delhi, Chennai, Kolkata and Hyderabad were the venues for the event where alumni from the institute’s various academic programs attended.

There were very senior people who attended the event with their families and it was truly an opportunity to meet old friends and go down memory lane.

Delhi had a very vibrant mix of alumni and freshers who had lots to share with each other. Mumbai being the financial capital was a very effervescent gathering with many alumni based out of Mumbai. Chennai and Hyderabad also had their share of fun with music and dance to add to the glitter. Bangalore and Kolkata had many senior alumni coming in. The first IIM K couple Mr. Nitin Gupta and Mrs. Supreet Gupta shared their memories of the campus, which was a first at Sangam this year, making it all the more unique.

The Alumni committee had arranged for a nostalgic video of the life at the campus, to revive the good old memories of the alumni and also provide a sneak peek to the new batch of what could be expected.

The present batch had a plethora of questions for the alumni on how to progress with their ideas and about the current state of the economy and what can be done to benefit from it. The event was a melting pot of ideas with the alumni having deep expertise and experience in the industry there to disseminate and share their experiences. The event was partnered by Apollo Hospitals and the beverages sponsored by the UB Group.
