Located at an average altitude of 1496 metres above the Main Sea Level, Shillong is nestled in the Khasi Hills, covered by the green cornucopia and the dreamy clouds. Shillong, a city full of life and a place to be, is the capital city of Meghalaya – “the abode of clouds”.

It is one of the leading education hubs in the North East with many schools and colleges specked in the picturesque settings. The city has beats and rhythms in everything: the church bells, the choirs, the rock bands and music flows in every nook and corner.

Surrounded by the hills, the city is in the vicinity of many beautiful tourist spots: Shillong Peak, the Elephant Falls, and the Ward’s Lake. The rains and mist in the air add to the charm of the place. As many have rightly quoted, the places in and around Shillong reminded many of the rolling greens of the Scottish highlands – thus it is also known as “Scotland of the East”. The human eyes’ thirst for beauty can be quenched by the scenic surroundings of Shillong. The full glory of Nature can be seen in the forests, lakes and waterfalls that are present in the region. For the adventure seeking souls there are challenging trekking routes in Smit Valley or the David Scott’s trail. Just near to it is Cherrapunji which offers many more places to sooth one’s eyes with Nature’s beauty. In Shillong, the hills keep reckoning the heart with its charm and so it’s best to keep your cameras and back packs ready!

And for conventional tourists, Shillong offers no less! The Elephant falls, Wards lake, Shillong Peak, Capt. Williamson Sangma State Museum, Cathedral of Mary Help of Christian, Sweet Falls and Don Bosco Centre are a few notable tourist spots in and around the city. Be it the “Sacred Groves” of Mawphlang, the engineering marvels of the “Living Root Bridges” or the resplendent Nohkalikai Falls, every place is a cynosure for the eyes.

IIM Shillong successfully hosted the fifth edition of TEDxIIMShillong at Hotel Polo Towers, Shillong, on February 18, 2017, featuring an exceedingly diverse set of speakers who have carved out a niche for themselves in a variety of fields including social activism, culinary arts, architecture, fashion, media, and public administration. From live magic performances to TED Talk videos on classical music, the event showcased the best of ideas that the thinkers and doers across the nation had to offer.

Based on the theme ‘Alchemy of Choice’, this year’s edition underscored the transformative power of choice. The list of speakers included Ms. Pankaj Bhadouria, winner of the first season of MasterChef India, Ms. Sheila Sri Prakash, acknowledged as one of the leading design thinkers of our age, Ms. Asha Bhat, winner of the Miss Supranational pageant in 2014, Ms. Deepika Narayan Bhardwaj, documentary filmmaker and men’s rights activist, Ms. Suhani Shah, psychosomatic counsellor and illusionist, Mr. Gaurav Jai Gupta, accredited with winning ELLE’s Young Creative Fashion Entrepreneurship Award

about life along with the technicalities of the ecommerce logistics platform from Mr. Sunit Saraswat, Zopnow.

The E-Day included a flurry of activities that left the audience enthralled. From innovation to entertainment, the event had it all. While Voonik asked probing questions to the presenters on changing its distribution channel, aspiring entrepreneurs tried convincing respected Venture capitalists and investors, Mr. Rakesh Mishra from Excubator and Mr. Vikram Duggal from Unitus Seed Fund why their idea was worth investing. The participants who came out unscathed with their dot com bubble still intact were declared the winners. Others got the 6 sixma gyaan from our guests who came all the way from the financial capital of the country; the world-famous Mumbai Dabbawalas. Everything wasn’t just about knowledge, we did say there was entertainment involved. A panel discussion with eminent personalities from the field of entertainment encompassing Rajeev Shankar Dev, Rajvir Dhillon, Wajid Ali, Rebecca Chongkija, Meena Longjam and none other than actor-singer Piyush Mishra, got together on the platform of EmergE to discuss scope of cinema in Northeast. The event on a high note with an informal gathering of all speakers and students where the gap between the guest and host dwindled over shayari and songs EmergE 2016 culminated.

in 2010, and Ms. Tilotama Varma, the first female Indian Police Officer from the state of Uttar Pradesh to be awarded the President’s Police Medal.

While Ms. Bhadouria painted the proverbial canvas with a refreshing look at the Alchemy of Food, Ms. Bhardwaj, with her gripping narrative, compelled the audience to ponder over the plight of the ‘Martyrs of Marriage’. Ms. Sri Prakash highlighted the instrumental role played by design thinking and sustainability in modern day architecture, and Ms. Tilotama Varma spoke about the choices she made as an IPS officer. Ms. Shah captivated the audience with her illusionist charm, and Ms. Asha Bhat enraptured the audience with the story of her journey from “boots to heels.” Mr. Gupta tickled a lot of funny bones, even as he spoke about the remarkable choices he made as an avant-garde fashion designer.

The second edition of TEDxIIMShillong grabbed the attention of the TED community and earned the license holder a chance attend TEDGlobal in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. With all in place, the event is expected to scale equal, if not greater heights.

Envision. Engage. Evolve.

There are no dreams too large, no Innovation unimaginable and no frontiers beyond our reach
