On February 8th, the second day of the event, at around 8:30 a.m , the ecell members started putting posters for the events for the same day . The registration desk was set up and was open for business at 9am sharp. Many people enrolled in taking part in the events for the day which included exciting events of E-HAST KALA , CHHOTA KAAM BADA INAAM, PHOENIX: WEALTH OUT OF WASTE, CATCH ME IF YOU CAN……….
E hast kala was a painting competition held amongst students from the first year who’ve just been recent past outs from school. The theme given to them was ‘ideas for india’, in line with the NEN e-week India celebrations. The artists painted on canvases of sheets , also t- shirt. The students showed immense potential for their items to be auctioned off at our E Mela to be held on Thursday.
Microentrepreneurship is a very important part to be explored by all business students. Taking this thought forward was organized the event called ‘CHOTA KAAM BADA INAAM’ at 10o clock . During this event the participating teams were to go to a microentrepreneur’s business (like maggi vendors, parantha walas, momo selling vendors etc.) The members of the teams had to understand the business model and suggest corrections for the same. The videotapings of the activity so performed was displayed to the judges with an oral presentation given by the teams themselves.
We usually discard waste material thinking of its no further use but then we undermine one thought that the waste can act a very useful resource as well. The participating teams had a chance to experience such resource utilization efficiency to create an innovative product. The teams came up with different products such as a robot, office equipments(pen stand, lamp shades,photo frames, chequebook supporter), make up keeper, clinical equipment(inhaler masks, gloves etc.), hookah/ sheesha etc.
Next to all these events at 3o clock, we had four teams of five people each participating in ‘CATCH ME IF YOU CAN’, an HR activity, aimed to relating HR concepts to reality. In the activity the teams were shown a series of eleven clippings edited out of bollywood movies(such as chak de, fashion, corporate, rocket singh etc.) . From these clippings, the participants had to judge what concept laid behind such movie clips. For example, a scene of rocket singh developing an HR concept related with interviewing. Participants were then to prepare a role play according to the HR concept assigned to them by lucky dip. The participants showed immense talent and enthusiasm & performed well executed role plays.
All the events were highly praised and appreciated by the panel of judges, student audiences, participating teams and organizers.
There are major events lined up for the entire e week including the resource wherein the teams get to solve different entrepreneurial puzzles, the emela which will enhance students team building and managerial and networking abilities. Other games like loan proposal, prototyping , Klickstart , what an idea sirji are some other enlisted activities.The organizers look forward to some real good fun and participation in the coming days of the week.
