Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.” -Albert Einstein
Knowledge is a powerful acquisition in life which, when given to someone, does not decrease. To check the knowledge of students and to prepare them for the upcoming challenges in their career and life, ISBR Business School organized a quiz competition,QFiesta: In pursuit of a purposeful recreation as a part of club activity by Writers’ and Media club for the students of the institute. Students from both MBA and PGDM streams participated in the quiz with great enthusiasm and spirit. The quiz was organized in two parts to encourage maximum participation by the students i.e., prelims with 23 teams participating and then final competition for which 6 final teams were shortlisted through prelims. The competition was aimed at developing the knowledge and excellence base among the students through a healthy and highly motivating meet.
