News Update: Entrepreneurs and Marketers



Last one week was intense for the budding entrepreneurs. There was a lot of brain storming for the Entrepreneurship course and the topics which the groups would like to take for their studies. The concerned club also organized a discussion forum where people seeking new ideas for opening enterprises could meet people who already have plans for future.

In Markstrat our team is now second amongst the 18 teams in Industry I, courtesy the failure of our most ambitious plan. As a group we are sad on the failure of our attempt to beat the much larger and resourceful industries 'E' and 'O'. But at least we are happy that we tried to win with a budget of 8000 against the teams with a budget of 25000. Yes, we couldn't do that and lost our first position in Industry 'I' in the process, though no regrets for the same.

The classes for foreign languages have also started and I am enrolled in French class. At the moment we are translating the instructions in English and Hindi scripts to make those understandable later.

Next week we will have the trial bidding for the electives in fifth term and the end terms are also approaching (OK, I shouldn't have said that as still over 10 days to go). But before that a lot of things are expected during and around this weekend and I will be back with those.
