Saarang: The Social Fiesta, is the flagship event of the Social & Governance Cell, celebrating community, culture, and social impact. Held over three vibrant days from 4th January to 6th January 2025, this year's theme, Unlock to Uplift, embodied our mission of creating opportunities, fostering inclusivity, and driving positive change.
Under the banner of Saarang we organised Symbihaat, National level case competitions, keynote sessions and panel discussions.
Spread across the first two days, Symbihaat: Symbis' own flea market, bringing together creativity, entrepreneurship, and social outreach. With a diverse range of stalls featuring handcrafted goods, artisanal products, and delicious treats, it was a hub of excitement and engagement. We witnessed a footfall of 2000+ students. To reinforce our commitment to social impact, four stalls were provided free of cost to rural vendors in collaboration with SCOPE (Symbiosis Community Outreach Program and Extension), empowering local communities with a platform to showcase their work. Alongside this, we collaborated with multiple vendors, offering them an opportunity to connect with students and the larger Symbiosis family.
The final day of Saarang, 6th January 2025, was a showcase of intellect, leadership, and meaningful discussions. We hosted National-Level Case Competitions for which we received over 2947 registrations on unstop and 210419 impressions. Out of the 5 competitions, Mission Mosaic and Heroes Under Hammers were held offline and 3 others were held online, where students from top B-schools across the country competed, showcasing their strategic thinking and problem-solving skills.
The Keynote Session, led by Mrs. Meghna Kaushik, provided deep insights into leadership, social impact, and governance, leaving the audience inspired. To encourage global perspectives, we organized an Online Panel Discussion on Zoom, featuring four distinguished panelists who engaged in a thought-provoking discussion.
