IIHMR University organised its alumni meet at Indian Habitat Centre, New Delhi on 9 November 2019. As many as 100 alumni witnessed the meet. On the occasion, a poster on ‘Centre for Excellence & Block Chain Technology’ was also launched by the dignitaries including Ms. Shikha Mehra, Founder & CEO, Mainchain Research and Consulting, Dr. Pankaj Gupta, President, IIHMR U and Dr. S D Gupta, Chairman, IIHMR U.
The meet was organized with the objective of reconnecting with the former students and reigniting memories while sharing institutional developments in the process and acknowledging their contribution in their field of work. Well settled in various branches of healthcare, pharmaceutical industry, hospital management, and rural management, the former students were accompanied by their family members who got to know more about the exciting life at IIHMR University. Nostalgia filled the room as the students re-connected with their peers, and interacted in person, especially at the age of social media where personal touch has taken a backseat against digital world.
Dr. S D Gupta, Chairman, IIHMR University, said "I recall the days we started this path-breaking program in India. I did not know at that time what I know now. And now that I see the products, I feel overwhelmed with nostalgia. From the founding class to the 21st Batch, it is unbelievable how far we have come." He further urged the alumni that whatever they have gained in terms of knowledge, it is the right time to consider giving and sharing it.
Dr. Pankaj Gupta, President IIHMR said “This is your institute and we are very proud of each one of you. This year itself we had 60 alumni come to the university to interact with our current students across various industry interfaces and topics. We tried to have chapter meets, homecomings, etc. An Institute is only as great as great are its alumni. We are trying to bring your university as close to you as we can- and we promise, we will be there for you, throughout your journey. Your success is our success- in every sense of the word."
It is to be noted that IIHMR U will soon be launching’ Centre for Excellence & Block Chain Technology’ along with Mainchain Research and Consulting.
