Theme: Beyond the Boundaries

“Beyond the Boundaries” because at our event we want to create a platform welcoming everyone regardless of their background or what they believe in. It emphasizes on the idea that boundaries often created by society should not limit you, in fact you should hold the power and courage to believe in yourself to push forward and go beyond these boundaries. At some point we all come across an exciting opportunity, a new path that might scare us but it’s up to us to push ahead past what’s pulling us back, let go of our inhibitions, and go conquer whatever it is that’s waiting for us. It’s time to buckle up, unleash our inner talents and make all those pending chalked out plans happen.
