Opportunities have just started to pour in

Being a student of a highly reputed business school has its own benefits. The father of Indian IT Industry, Dr. F. C. Kohli was in Kingston to receive the honorary doctrate degree by the Queen`s University and 6 out of the 73 people in the batch had a chance to meet him. It was an excellent opportunity to meet him and hear him speak!
