Xpressions 2006 at XIMB Concluded in a Riot of Colours, Lights & Sounds
Post-event Press-release

The topic for this year was "The Steel Sector in India - The Way Ahead". With the panelists possessing diverse views on the subject, a fiery debate ensued. The audience too contributed by questioning a lot of the view-points that the panelists had advocated.

The two flagship events of Xpressions - Skill City and Kurukshetra - started on the next day with participants from B-schools across the country. Kurukshetra is designed to test the decision-making skills of the participants in the business world and is played in three modules. XLRI swept both the first and the second prizes in this event with S. P. Jain coming third. All the participants were very appreciative of the amount of effort that had gone into creating the game and even wanted to replicate the same in their colleges.

Skill City on the other hand is a series of games, played across 10 modules, designed to test the soft skills of the participants. Here, the event was won by a team comprising of a mixture of students from NMIMS and XIM. The participants claimed to have really enjoyed the games and did not really expect the level of creativity that had been displayed in the games.

Each interest group of XIM from XSYS and XIMAHR to XFIN and MAXIM had a lot of events in their areas of interest, which attracted participation from students in every corner of the country. The level of participation was really encouraging and the feedback given by the participants would definitely ensure even better events next year.

The series of quizzes organized by Xquizzite were very exciting, made more so by the quizmaster Mr. Aravind Mudaliyar. The quality of quizzing on display was really amazing and the kind of innovative questions that were asked made all three quizzes a great success.

One event that XIM had not seen before was "Carnivale de Vogue", a fashion show that had 4 different undergraduate colleges participating. It was an evening to remember with different styles, colors and fashions flaunted by those walking the ramp. The shows-stealer was of course the last part of the event where XIM's home team too took to the ramp.
