NEEV

This is the Annual Business School festival of SCMHRD. It includes a variety of events ranging from case studies to concerts, mock boardroom games to music performances, strategy games to street plays, online simulations to quizzes etc.

Though its seeds were sown years back in 1995, the magnitude and scale it has reached today had its beginnings in 2006. On the strong foundations of previous years, NEEV continues to grow and become bigger and better each passing year.

NEEV 2010 saw a total footfall of 8600+ which included thousands of students from top Indian B-schools like IIMs, MDI, FMS, SP Jain, XLRI, NMIMS etc.; undergraduate teams from IITs, NITs etc as well as corporate teams.
With a theme of 'Chaos and Effect', NEEV 2010 was about breaking away from the beaten path, causing chaos out of convention and creating an effect that is novel, ingenious and even more effectual than its precedent.

NEEV 2010 was inaugurated by Dr. R. Gopalakrishnan, (Director, TATA Sons). Rajiv Bajaj (MD, Bajaj Auto), Chavi Rajawat (the 'MBA Sarpanch') and Vikram Sathaye (stand-up comedian) were the eminent celebrity speakers.

NEEV has always been blessed with a host of patrons who have helped the event reach its present magnitude. In 2010, NEEV collaborated with leading names of the business world including SAIL, IBM, MCX, NABARD, Indian Oil, Fiat and many more.

The theme for this years NEEV is THE FOURTH QUADRANT, so what is it:

Everything begins with an idea.
But it is not just your mind that conjures up something great... it is a multitude of factors that inspire, mould and shape the origins of the idea and subsequently the idea itself.
On the one hand are the known, but restrictive factors - intense competition, fast paced lives and monetary mindsets. On the other hand, is an unlit path, where knowledge is abundant, but consequences are unexplored.
This is The Fourth Quadrant where a dark ocean of knowledge breeds sparks of light. This is also the space where collaboration and support can make your ideas tangible.

Every Idea has a journey. It is the eureka moment AND its journey through time that eventually manifests into something great.
I, NEEV, dwell in this Fourth Quadrant for inspiration, revelation and recognition

Where I think, unhindered,
Where I act, unshackled

Neev11 is going to be bigger and better this time with celebrities like Sivamani, Hardkaur and Kshitij Tarey performing on Dec 9 10 11th. Be there and be a part of India's 2nd largest B-fest.
