With a rich legacy of over 30 years, SIBM Pune's Co-Curricular Team once again raised the bar with Transcend 2025- a benchmark B-school festival that pushed the boundaries of imagination and intellect. This year's edition, themed "Echoes of Ethereal Enigma", delivered a transformative experience that redefined excellence in management and cultural fests.
Spanning three exhilarating days from January 7th to 9th, Transcend 2025 brought together the brightest minds from top B-schools across India. The fest was inaugurated by Dr. S B Mujumdar (Chancellor, SIU) and Dr. R Raman (Vice Chancellor, SIU), setting an inspiring tone for what followed—intense, high-stakes management competitions and vibrant cultural showcases. The spotlight remained on the flagship event, Last Man Standing, which tested endurance, strategy, and spirit, with a grand prize of ₹1.5 lakhs.
The Punchline Series returned with a bang, featuring top-tier comedians Devesh Dixit and Ravi Gupta, who brought the house down with their wit and humour. Evenings came alive with electrifying Pro Nights, headlined by musical icons Salim-Sulaiman and Gajendra Verma, along with show-stopping performances by Sabali - The Band, Tanishka Sanghvi (Tia), and high-energy DJ sets by XTACY, VIOLA, RHT, RAGE, and TREMENT.
Transcend 2025's success was amplified by the unwavering support of sponsors, with Acerreturning as the prestigious title sponsor. Valuable collaborations with Coca Cola, WYB, GroupMe(Microsoft) and several other partners underscored the fest’s role in empowering the next generation of changemakers.
More than just a festival, Transcend 2025 was a cosmic journey of innovation, creativity, and connection-firmly cementing its place as one of India's premier B-school events.
