A Night to Remember: The Valedictory Ceremony  

We couldn’t let this achievement go by without a celebration! On February 15, 2025, we came together for a valedictory ceremony that was filled with pride, joy, and a whole lot of high-fives! 

The highlight? Mr. Milesh J, Vice President of SAP Labs Pvt Ltd, joined us as the chief guest. But here’s what made it extra special—Milesh isn’t just any industry leader; he’s an alumnus of Batch 1 of this very program! He shared how AI knowledge helped him grow in his career, and honestly, his story is proof that investing in yourself always pays off. 

We were also honoured to have Professor Rishikesha Krishnan (Director, IIM Bangalore), Professor Dinesh Kumar (Program Director, IIMB), and Professor Vandana Singhvi Patel (Academic Director, IIMBx) with us. They cheered on the learners and applauded their hard work. 

A 95% Success Rate—Now That’s Something to Celebrate!  

Here’s a stat that speaks volumes—95% of our learners completed the program! That’s huge! Many of them traveled from all over India just to be part of this special evening, making the celebration even more meaningful. 

And, of course, we had to recognize those who went the extra mile! The top performers across different courses, along with the three overall toppers of the program, were awarded for their outstanding achievements. 

But beyond the numbers, the real win was seeing the joy, pride, and sense of accomplishment on everyone’s faces. Watching them celebrate with their families, friends, and peers was a reminder of why we do what we do.
