With an illustrious panel of unbiased judges, the events explored the dynamic world of Commerce through intense debates, business trivia and risk taking. Employing the art of persuasive communication and crisis management, our aspiring business leaders revealed their unique perspectives and imaginative interpretations over the course of two days.

At the closing ceremony, our guests interacted with some of the participants, who presented a sales pitch for their real estate platform and addressed the issues raised. These budding change makers were applauded and appreciated by all.
