On 16th September, 2022 a few of us lucky members of IEM’s Young Indians society got a chance to attend Young Indian’s largest conclave on Financial Renaissance at Hyatt Regency, Kolkata. The YIFI conclave, presented by dezerv., was graced by numerous dignified luminaries as speakers including Shri Nitin Gadkari, Minister of Road Transport and Highways; Shri Harshvardhan Neotia, Chairman of the Ambuja Neotia Group and Shri Nilesh Shah, MD of Kotak Mahindra Asset Management Company Ltd. One of Indian’s well-known influencers and a very dedicated writer, Chetan Bhagat was also a major part of the conclave. Almost 40 students, from both B.Tech and MBA batches felt privileged to be a part of such an event. The event kickstarted with a graceful felicitation ceremony for the chief guests by the co-chairs of the Kolkata CII chapter, Vaibhav and Rohit. This was followed by the inauguration speeches delivered by Mr. Neotia and Mr. Niraj Singh, Founder and CEO of Spinny, on why it is essential for the youth of India to start investing in their futures from an early age and the importance of studying economics and finance as a major part of our curriculum. Next was the first keynote address, delivered by Mr. Neotia himself, on how India is currently well-set on a trajectory of becoming a 5 trillion USD Economy by 2025, and all the crucial steps we must follow, sacrifices we, as the youth, must make to ensure our proud nation pushes beyond the 10 trillion USD mark by 2030 so as to truly emerge as a superpower in the global markets. He was succeeded by Mr. Niraj Singh, a young entrepreneur who spoke about the road to becoming a Unicorn as evidenced by his own used-car sale company, Spinny, which just entered the celebrated unicorn club within a short 6 fiscal years of its foundation. After that,the limelight fell onto Mr. Nilesh Shah, who educated us on the intricacies of capital markets and how to navigate them. All in all, it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity offered by our college to us to meet and immensely learn from the plethora of knowledge shared by our dignitaries, and we will forever be grateful to IEM for such an eye-opening dive into the complex world of finance, business and success in life.
