It also provided grounds to introduce the 2013-14 Young Professionals committee, with introductions made by co-chairs Shreya Tekriwal and Oeishi Bhattacharjee. Plans for this year’s YP events along with a YP conference were also announced at the event as a means to generate audience interest and gather feedback. |
