INTRODUCTORY SPEECH by Founder of So Delhi:

The event kick started with a quick introduction by So Delhi Founder and CEO, Digant Sharma, who illuminated the importance of quality content creation and the rapidly-gaining-traction concept of Influencer Marketing.

PANEL DISCUSSION:

 One of the highlight of the evening was the panel discussion between the blogger panelists which included Komal Khulbe (www.delhifashionblogger.com) , Mehak Shahani (www.wedmegood.com) , Neeru Singh (www.eatstory.in). The floor was then thrown open to all the participants for any queries regarding their blog, Blogging in general, how they deal with negative comments, Blog traffics etc. and personally I felt this discussion was very helpful.

What followed was a lively introduction of PepperTap - The Grocery App followed by One Touch Response, an emergency app for women on the lines of 911. Fehmida Baba from Roposo enlightened the crowd about India's biggest fashion community and fashion influencer marketing. Team Roposo also organized a fun pop quiz for all the fashionistas in the house, giving away amazing goodies for every right answer.

Introducing the Roposo app:

Roposo's photobooth was the heart of an event, We were asked to choose any props of our choice and to recreate a look and the best thing was getting photo printed instantly. And more over those who were having the Roposo App were given a gift hamper box which includes a compact mirror and a PipaBella earring.

Violin performance by Bella courtesy of Himalayan Natural Mineral water enthralled and left the crowd speechless throughout especially her version of 'jai ho' from the Slumdog Millionaire soundtrack.

In between all these, free time was given and we were all served light snacks and soft drinks and when the stage was not occupied we get to engage with different people specially as a blogger I got to speak with many brand managers/representatives and I am so glad some people came up to me and appreciated my work. Thanks!!

This was followed bu a sensatinal introductory stand up performance by Utsav Chakraborty from the Satan Bhagat fame and the audience were then regaled with Manik Mahna's particularly zestful brand of comedy.

There was a 'Make your Own Sandwich' Counter courtesy of Cremica Foods was set up for guests to make sandwiches with some very unusual concoctions thrown u by them and 3 lucky winners took home big hampers filled with Cremica goodies.

PANEL DISCUSSION:

Discussion on 'How to monetize your Confluence' with a distinguished panel of business heads including Udit Malhotra, a Digital Marketing Specialist, Nikhil Pallat from The Lalit Hotels Group, Ankita Chaudhary, Brand Manager - Himalayan Natural Mineral Water answered volley of questions lobbed at them by the guests.
