Khul Ja SIM SIM.......SIMerations 2008, the annual festival of SIMSREE (acronym for Sydenham Institute of Management Studies, Research and Entrepreneurship Education) opened (khul gaya) with wide and avid enthusiasm from the sizeable 231 participants who came down to the institute from among the best of B-schools across the country, including S.P. Jain Institute of Management and Research, Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies, NMIMS, SJMSoM (IIT Bombay), Symbiosis Institute of Business Management, IIFT and above all, IIM Ahmedabad. Such is the repute of SIMSREE now amongst the B-school circles that it brought what we proudly aver as national-level recognition. SIMergence 2008 was a phenomenal success indeed!

So what exactly made all this possible. The answer is crisp and simple: the toil of the students who burnt midnight oil to plan the course of events to be spread over a period of three days. The poster was artistically designed, methodically articulated and printed. Students ran around the city to reach remote ends in order to promote the gala event. Event
Heads, volunteers, Team-leads worked whole-heartedly and diligently to evoke ideas, brainstorm for manners of execution, pitching for sponsorship and carrying out plans for making all necessary arrangements, all in a span of two weeks.

The sports-day which opened the 3-day extravaganza witnessed macho men compete in a tug-of-war, agile and swift lean men swinging their bats in table-tennis, fast and furious Lees bowling to aggressive and determined Sehwags in box-cricket, shrewd and cunning Kasparovs pitched against calm and wise Anands in the chess tournament. Treasure Hunt and carom were the specials towards the end of the day.

The management day attracted huge participation from budding managers and entrepreneurs who were bent on proving their mettle and to win the formidable series of contests ranging from Business Quiz to Marketing Game to Logo Quiz to Business Plan. The most eagerly awaited of them all was the Investment game which saw aspiring Jhunjhunwalas thronging the virtual Dalal Street in the seminar hall.

The cultural day which followed provided the platform for burgeoning talent in singing, dance and music to display their artistic skills to enthral the audience. The occasion was graced by the presence of the famous new sensation in the field of playback singing, Kshitij, who entertained each soul with his melodious voice. Nothing could, however, beat the fashion show. A zillion pictures were clicked to retain the memories of the absolutely jhakaas performance by the teams on themes varying from graveyard chores to Hyderabadi seductiveness to an ethnic elegant saree show to studs and babes showing-off their attitudes and throwing pampers.

The team of organizers deserves all the accolades showered upon it. They are the ideals for aspiring MBAs to learn management and draw inspiration from.
