IIM Kozhikode�s recent 17th Annual Management Conclave, Horizon 2017, came to an awe inducing end that witnessed an exchange of ideas through thought provoking conversations and an intellectually stimulated environment on the apt theme of �Turning Points in Life�. Decorated with notable personalities, the event witnessed an array of seminars, talks and competitions hosted by the Industry Interaction Cell of IIMK. The session took place among famous names from the domains of entertainment, civil services, literature and so on.

To broaden the horizon and capture the learning essence, eminent personalities interacted with the students, sharing the turning points of their lives. Atul Karwal, IG, CRPF of Jammu Kashmir, held the audience captive through his insurmountable narration of his experience in handling critical areas of Kashmir and scaling of Mount Everest; the students gained a very distinct perception on leadership. At the keynote address, Mathew Oommen, President of Reliance Jio Infocomm, explained the digital revolution and also discussed the recent demonetisation that would play a key role in boosting the much heard digital drive. He said, �With our Prime Minister�s bold initiative to drive demonetization, along with an ambitious digital initiative, Jio, has taken it to itself, to be the highway and streetway to reach 90 percent of the population with broadband � transcending demographics�.

The conclave also witnessed the distinguished presence of Mukesh Chhabra (casting director), Savi Sharma (Author) and Harrish Sairaman (Motivational speaker), who inspired the students to make their mark in the world. The event ended on a high and cheery note with the stand up by Karunesh Talwar who had the audience in splits with a series of memorable catch phrases and jokes.
