CQ’16 - Live Project Report

 

Introduction:

 

An event becomes successful because of the hard work of all the different teams that work together. The opportunity to be a part of an event and also to be able to lead a team gave us a chance to be able to understand the amount of work and the efforts that goes into making an event possible while at the same time helped us to improve our skills as future managers.

As part of our course in Symbiosis School of Media and Communication, a student is expected to be associated and be a part of projects (i.e the various events or conferences that take place.) in order to get hands on experience of how these events are planned and strategized and what all goes on behind the scenes in order to make these events a success. One of the live projects that I got a chance to be very closely associated with was Communication Quotient 2016, (CQ’16) the annual flagship event of SSMC-B.
