Guest Talk – National Institute of Technology, Patna

Guest Talk at NIT-Patna

During my entrepreneurship stint, I was invited to NIT Patna under CSI to provide a Guest Talk.

This talk was sponsored by Computer Society of India ( it was a miniature version of TEDx with diverse student spectators )

Topics covered:

  • Contributing to Open Source Projects
  • Linux and power of CLI tools
  • Cybersecurity
  • Internet culture, Laws and Privacy
  • Startups and Entrepreneurship

Talk at National Institute of Technology (NIT) was of about straight 5 hours which included 1 hour quiz section. Topics were outcome of thorough research and single aim to unlock possibilities. Introducing elements which would positively impact students and aspiring professionals, and ultimately help them become better version of their self.

My visit comprised of Talk followed by a quiz session and interaction was so uplifting and inspiting that it encouraged students to participate in GSOC and paved the way for them get involved into open source world, internet security and startup culture.

During my presence, I brainstormed with them on creative ideas, problem solving, internet culture, and Netizen ideology.

Ah, and as a part of quiz, I got to distribute Xperia Device and 2x128GB SanDisk USB Flash Drive to the winners.

Met wonderful student leaders like Rohit Kashyap and Divya Upadhyay who seem to be doing super well these days.
