Advent 2022 was the first event organized by the Aspirant Relations Team after the course commencement for the batch of 2022-24. After a wait of 2 long years, this event was conducted in offline mode. As the students were at the precipice of starting their MBA life at SIBM Pune, we wanted to give them a throwback to their school life. The theme for Advent 2022 was “Back To School” with a focus on unwind, rewind, and outwind. There were 3 major competitions- Tiffin Hunt- a treasure hunt to showcase their coordination and teamwork skills, Cheat Me If You Can- a competition filled with fun and nostalgia to showcase the power of synergy, and The Ultimate Pen Striking Championship- a knock-out competition to showcase their skills in pen fighting. Moreover, a surprise event- “Cake Love” was organized and celebrated, with all the fun elements and zeal of a birthday party, to mark the launch of Advent 2022 among the batchmates. A buzz event- “Propel” was conducted where students engaged in a lively paper plane flying competition. Apart from this, daily contests were conducted on social media to keep the students engaged. The winners and runners-up of all these competitions were awarded exciting prizes.
The competition witnessed enthusiastic participation from all the batches along with phenomenal response in all the events conducted over social media handles.
Advent is the only event conducted by ART for the current students of SIBM Pune. The objective of the event was to inculcate a sense of camaraderie and association among the students and give them a fun trip down the memory lane to reminisce about their school memories before their unique MBA journey begins.
