Kellogg Club of India

Over 100 people descended upon the Hard Rock Hotel in Calangute in September for the Kellogg India offsite at Goa. The ages ranged from infants to people in their 60s. It wasn’t a packed three days. In fact, quite the opposite. It was a relaxed three days where we met old friends and made new ones. At the heart of the offsite was an entire morning spent “knowing the alumni.” Everyone shared what they did and highlighted areas in which they could use help. The stuff that people were doing was impressive – from upskilling India’s youth, to working on solar power, to working with India’s farmers and so on. Many start-ups and venture capitalists were in the room. The room was full of youthful energy and beer.

It was almost magical how the event worked. This is a networking event Kellogg alumni want to come back to again and again. Not just because it offers some professional benefit but because it is lots of fun! Summary provided by Chetan Mahajan ’07, published author and an award-winning blogger.
