Unable to meet in person due to the current situation, the India Chapter decided to catch up virtually. Sameer Nawani, Ambassador of Chapter India (IMM 11), and Archita Prahladka (exchange student 18) narrate to us their experience organizing this online meet.

Before the COVID-19 breakout, everyone had planned something or the other and so did we. We planned our Audencia Around the World India Alumni Meet in Mumbai in March too but as the situation started uncovering we called off this meet only to meet again after the recovery.
Although, technology has been so kind to each one of us that this pandemic came at a time when we were at least prepared to survive with social distancing. It is going to be a long wait for the world to reopen once again and so we decided to unite and make these moments of unhappy quarantine merrier.

On April 11, 2020, Indian Audencians across the world locked in themselves in one virtual room to have yet another feeling that they are there for each other. Many were meeting each other for the first time. Some had gone to Audencia 10 years back and some had gone just 9 months back. Although the memories of Audencia and tales of Nantes seemed as fresh for each one. The introductions became storytelling sessions which in turn became waves of laughter and smiles! The meet was threaded by various engaging activities including share your favourite beverage, favoured quarantine activity, most memorable Audencia moment and so on.

Every Audencian shared their live locations and it was exhilarating to spot them across the world: Siddharth (IMM 10) from Canada, Umesh from Brazil (IMM 10), Nushad (IMM 16) from France, ... A dedicated WhatsApp Group saw many more additions after the call and everyone shared their professional identities too. It is always so overwhelming to see a family in making both on personal and professional fronts. An "Alma Mater" connect is definitely a more magical and nostalgic one which gives a sense of belonging and love to each Alumni and this French Connect of Audencians is certainly a cherished one!
