“The Biggest Adventure You Can Take Is To Live The Life Of Your Dreams!”

Indeed, thats the life we all wish to have. It drives you to complete motivation. The NAEMD Orientation Day program held at Bhaidas Hall, Vile Parle (West) on Aug 5, stirred this same motivation and fervor in the heart and mind of young enthusiastic students and their equally fervent parents.

One of the commendable aspects that made the event exemplary was that NAEMD had managed to bring many eminent industry professionals from the events, media and entertainment industry under one roof, taking the significance of the event to new heights. This speaks volumes of the institute’s reach, association and credibility amongst industry stalwarts.

From sharing insightful viewpoints on the nuances of working in this industry to shedding light on its future, growth rate, and opportunities, these business leaders gave a good outside-in perspective of the Event Management industry and its offshoots to the aspiring attendees.

Here are a few highlights from the pearls of wisdom that they shared:

She concluded that, though the glamour element is the most visible, its actually a saga of grit, determination, and perseverance.

Another aspect that added appreciation to the day was the partnership of NAEMD with NGO activities like DaanUtsav. The committee members of DaanUtsav were present to guide the students to work, while rooting to the values & ethics of one.
