Talking about the event, Mr Abhishek Gupta, Founder and CEO of HSM and INACE, says, “I’m glad we had such a large turnout in terms of registrations. Through open ideas, storytelling, and meaningful connection, we’ve been attempting to empower parents in guiding their children in choosing a rewarding and fulfilling career. Through such events, we hope to provide high school students with high-quality international research and profile-building opportunities. These programmes have been tireless in our efforts to empower every single student to make an informed decision about their future by bringing together thought leaders, educators, and counsellors on a single platform and ensuring that they have access to all of the information they require.”
