Mumbai Chapter meet held successfully

The IIFT Mumbai Alumni Chapter meet concluded successfully on May 14, 2011 at the Indian Merchant Chamber, Churchgate, which saw an enthusiastic response from alumni of many batches. The evening, which was well planned and organized by Abhishek B V and Nikhil Sabharwal, executive members of the Alumni Committee, saw the participation of The IIFT Alumni Society’s Executive Council.

The event started with an introductory note from the chapter head Mr Rajiv Gatne, who thanked the alumni for devoting their time for the meet. It was followed by a small address by our Director Shri K.T.Chacko to the alumni and noted that alumni are the biggest assets of the college. The corporate video of IIFT was presented by Anil Kolla, the student Alumni Coordinator, which was followed by a power point presentation of the last year activities and the calendar for the next year.

Mr Bharat Merchant (Batch of 1972) was the senior most alumnus to attend the chapter meet and was presented with a memento by the chapter head Mr Rajiv Gatne. It was followed by an exciting ‘Business Quiz’ hosted by the MC of the evening Mr Umang Chittalangia, which invited the participation from many of the alumni. Gifts were given for each correct answer. The evening culminated with dinner and drinks.

The two caricature makers in the venue made the evening even more memorable as many of the alumni got their caricatures sketched by them. All the alumni in the chapter meet were given a ‘passport wallet’ as a token of memento for attending the chapter meet.
