friends for life. We all cherish our memories of ITM whenever we get together. Seeing
dreams coming true which we saw at ITM is always a pleasure.

Kaleidoscope of experiences which made me a professional even before I stepped

cherished time of my life. The learnings, and the small but profound insights given
by our visiting faculties, the fun and the late nights presentation reparations, the
ups and the downs every moment spent with ITM is still nurtured by everyone of us
because you change the moment you become an “ITM-ite”... it helps you to find the
best of you.
ITM was a wonderful experience in terms of both learning as well as fun and it was a

real life corporate world. I wish everyone from the past, present and future batches,
