Navodyami Sammelana - 2015



'Desh' Deshpande speaking at the conference
Navodyami Sammelana, a conference of micro-entrepreneurs, was held in Deshpande Foundation, Hubli, on February 8, 2015. This annual conference was held for the second consecutive year. The Sammelana of 2014 saw an inspiring guest Mrs. Sudha Murthy, along with 'Desh' Deshpande. This year, it was a much more happening event with many such distinguished guests.

The participation by Navodyamis this year was overwhelming! About 200 Navodyamis gathered from all over North Karnataka.
The list of guests included Gururaj Deshpande, Phanindra Sama and Jaishree Deshpande.

The participants included the ones from the latest batch (2014) like Smita, Raju and others along with older batch Navodyamis like Fakirappa, Nagaraj, Sheela and many others.


The participants were divided into groups based on their areas of interest. Two panel sessions - Credit linkage and Marketing - were conducted simultaneously with about 100 participants in each. The Navodyamis participated in the sessions enthusiastically and tried to clarify their doubts, gain more knowledge and guidance from the experts.
