The Centre is constantly engaged in hosting numerous events every year since its inception; these events include the marriage and efficient usage of business acumen and legal knowledge to be adjudged as the winner. Following are the events that have been hosted by C.S.B.I.:
Our flagship event, inclusive of an entrepreneurship workshop, a business plan competition and a seminar conducted over three days to ensure the students learn the essentials of a start-up in today’s world.
OThe event is conducted at fortnightly intervals by the Centre wherein a peer hosts an interactive session on any topic ranging from law to business to culture to politics.
The event comprises an issue that requires mediation between the participants acting in the capacity of a Business Development Manager and the participants acting in the capacity of a Legal Consultant for the same company. A crucial decision for the company is at stake here.
The event is organized by the Centre annually comprising a Mock IPL Auction organized for the students on campus. The event entails all due procedure for bidding of IPL Teams to a restricted budget which team managers (participants) strictly follow.
OThe event was a national-level model World Economic Forum. It was organised in a replication of the sessions of the World Economic Forum which signifies the happening of an unexpected event, that as a crisis, affects one or more economies more significantly than the rest. This has the potential to create big problems for policy-makers if they are trying to set a macroeconomic policy, which works for the area/s affected directly and indirectly by the shock.
The Centre hosts various workshops on campus on topics that relate to business and/or the law. The last workshop that was conducted was based on maternity law. It was conducted by Dr. Meeta Sengupta who is a fellow of Salzburg Global Seminar and a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, enlightening the students regarding all the steps being taken towards sensitization and implementation of maternity laws in the country.
Research Projects:
The Research Department of the Centre has been working on various projects to develop effective policies that could be presented as a plausible solution to the authority that is directly concerned with the issue.
The objective behind drafting this policy was to promote the participation of the people in the field of sports and fitness along with increasing the awareness regarding issues that, once resolved, might well result in the welfare of aspiring and current athletes. The promotion of overall infrastructure in the sphere of sports is the main intention of this policy. The Centre also presented the policy to the Sports Authority of Telangana.
