We reached IIM B on 23rd September evening and were amazed by the scenic beauty on the campus. There is something different about the IIM B campus and getting a chance to stay in this campus was no less than a blessing for us.As per the competition rules, the top5 teams selected for the final round had to visit Samarthanamthe day before the final event to understand the whole case practically.It was really inspiring to see how the vision of one person could make a change in the lives of so many disabled people. I was just impressed by the statement of director “making liability (disabled person) into taxpayer”. We made some changes in our presentation and finally wewere ready for the D-day. We practised a lot to deliver our presentation efficiently in the given timeline of 10 minutes. We were the first team to present thus relieving us of our fearsto wait for our turn later. We presented the case and answered all the questions put across by the jury. Most of them were convinced by our answers. We had to wait until all the presentations were over and we were told later to wait outside before announcing the result. For me every second was close to an hour because this particular moment was one of the most precious moments of my life. After half an hour the Jury announced the result and mentioned that, it was very difficult to choose between 1st and 2nd team. They declared the results and we were elated to have won the 2nd prize. We were on cloud nine and I was living my dream of getting a certification from IIM B for an international event.
We took the pictures on the IIM B campus and capturedsome precious moments. I immediately thanked GOD for fulfilling my dreams. Staying in IIM B campus for 3 days and winning 2nd prize in one of the flagship events in IIM B Vista 2015 are the moments which I will cherish in my whole life.
