Poseidon 2005

Sunday, December 18, 2005

ISB’s annual b-school fest brought in numerous institutes to compete in the Gachibowli grounds for the past two days. Lots of competitions and numerous winners… but the biggest ‘kudos’ need to be given to the event organizers. Great show ‘Team Poseidon’ and all other clubs event organizers – who worked hard before and during the two days of innumerable activities sacrificing time in between the academic and placement activities that run non-stop on campus.

Poseidon started with Odyssey – a business and general entertainment quiz, followed by Kryptos – an Ad Interpretation Contest, Olympia – The Technology Innovation Challenge, Negotiatus – the client interview contest, Cerebrum – Consulting case competition, Elysium – fashion show and a grand finale for the day Octavia – Music Competition.

The fashion show and the music competition had the highest turnout during the day – Fashion show was contested between ISB and ICFAI, Hyderabad and though ISB won, I must say ICFAI were equally good. The music competition had 4 diverse music teams participating – ICFAI, Hyderabad, ISB, Infosys and Badruka College of Commerce. ICFAI had good singers and good instruments, Infosys was the most lively band and Badruka’s heavy metal band had Khemka rolling their heads. ISB’s team never ceases to amaze us with wonderful talent – a remarkable performance by the whole team. Barduka’s team (After Death) finished first and Infosys team (C#) roped in the second place.

Day two had the finals of the Equity research presentation – Drachma, Debate competition – Rhetorium, Emerging Markets Presentation – Pegasus, Marketing case presentation – Symposium, Venture World event – Tempest and Energy Club presentation – Energia. Poseidon was brought to a closure with the Greek Theme party @ our SV-1 lawns which was rocking on till at least 4 am!

The past two weekends seem to have been big party time – Solstice and Poseidon – forcing everyone to forget the usual ISB life for once! The coming week is loaded with assignments and today we all need to get back on to the ‘sprint’.
