CEans,
We've successfully had meets in Pune, Mumbai, Hyderabad & Delhi. I think we can have better organization of our meets so that they are very useful and productive for all our attendees.
One idea that I'm working on is organizing our meets with corporate support. Following is a direct dump from my brain and I need your ideas/inputs/feedback on what's being planned.

One idea that I'm working on is organizing our meets with corporate support. Following is a direct dump from my brain and I need your ideas/inputs/feedback on what's being planned.
- Organize the meet at a corporate campus. Have the attendees register for the meet in advance.
- Have 5 minute talks by sponsoring company's senior engineers about the work they do and general interactive sessions.
- Have our own CEans present their own ideas (about anything like their project work or business) to our own CEans.
- Activity in point #3 can help in finding potential business partners / investers / tech-partners from our own gang of CEans.
- Have some interesting activity (skit, quiz, talent promotion etc.)
- Have a general round-table discussion among CEans on topics like career-planning, new projects, collaborations, partnerships etc.
- Serve everyone with snacks & (soft) drinks 😲.
- Plan for next meet & volunteers to organize next CE Meet in the city.
Student:
- You get a chance to see how things work in professional world
- Interact with seniors who are working in your dream industry/company
- Guidance about career.
- Networking :smile:
- General awareness
- Networking - #1 😀
- Find like minded people
- Co-founders, investors, techies for your business idea(s)
- General awareness about other engineering industries
- Job switch/search 😉
- Free world-wide publicity through CE.
- Showcase your latest technology/innovations to people who'd be the foremost users of your technology.
- Be seen as supporter of innovative engineering.
- CEans to write about the meet on forums and through their own blogs -> more publicity.
- Almost zero investment [we don't mind if you sponsor snacks & soft drinks for our CEans.]
