About Event

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Decades ago NITIE decided to take a step towards making a mark on the business school fraternity through the inception of such events as Prerana (circa. 1995), Lakshya (circa. 2000), Empresario(circa. 2004), Envison, and Litmus (circa. 2007). 2012 saw Envison and Litmus merge with Prerana. The prime objective of these festivals has always been to provide the much needed industry interface for the students. The events see participants from the best business schools of the country compete in competitions that span the entire gamut of management education. They also see phenomenal corporate participation and help in fostering managerial excellence by bringing students, faculty, and industry leaders onto a common platform. NITIE celebrates its golden jubilee in 2013 and would take a monumental step towards integrating all student events including the four aforementioned ones into a unified celebration. 2013 would see the genesis of Avartan
