Reporting And Writing Live

The Confedration of Indian Industry Partnership Summit 2006 provided a golden opportunity to budding journalists to work as outsourced newsletter and proceedings content providers for the organizers. Apart from the absorbing and interesting plenary and luncheon business sessions, there were special spouses’ programmes like introduction to Kolkata fashion, Kolkata architecture and the Sunderbans and art exhibition with an interactive session with The Asia Society President Vishakha Desai, heritage tram ride, and not to forget the sumptuous lunches and snacks at ITC Sonar Bangla and Oh Calcutta!

Both the technical and the leisure coverages were great learning experiences for the student scribes, trying to make a foray into the exciting challenge called journalism.
