Institute of Leadership Entrepreneurship and Development (iLEAD) much awaited first alumni meet was held February 20th, 2016. The Alumni Meet held at the institute’s rooftop. Since the institute's origin 5 years back this meet was much needed. From students to staff, there were old and new members who were delighted to have a reunion like this.
Established in 2010, iLead has already brought about a transformation in the region’s educational landscape with its unique approach towards learning through global tie-ups with other institutes, use of latest technologies, world-class online resources and by facilitating real life experiences in and outside the campus.
An enlightening speech was also delivered by the Chairman of the institute Mr Pradip Chopra. The Speech inspired the audience as he spoke about the academics, industry, entrepreneurship and much more. The evening featured song and dance performances by students and faculty members. A note worthy mention is the performance by Arka and Friends (Faculty member Arkaprava Chattopadhyay’s fresh new musical line up). The evening also bestowed the coveted honour of ‘Mr and Ms. Alumni’ on students who have now become achievers in their respective industries. The delicious veg banquet organized at the rooftop attracted the foodies and people engaged in yesteryear conversations and nostalgia over dinner tables. Students and alumni members lived and frolicked to the DJ music. In the end, everyone left with an enthusiasm and hopes for next year’s Alumni meet.
