Meetup with Kamran Rizvi (Kambha), Royal Palm Golf and Country Club, Lahore, Avivons, Syed Kashif ul Hasnain


After a Mega event of Entrepreneurial Conference "Tiecon 2010" at Royal Palm on October 30, 2010, A meetup with Kamran Rizvi was arranged by a very talented guy Mr. Iftikhaar Hussain at Royal Palam Golf and Country Club, Lahore on October4, 2010. We were 3 friends from CIIT,Lahore.The timing was 2.30-5pm. We reached at 2.20pm.. The environment was great. All the sitting arrangement was properly organised. Good registration process confirmation at the entry. After the entry we had warm welcome from the organizer of the event. Before the meetup time started we had a nice networking before the session. As the formal time began all the participants were seated properly.

Business Ideas Competition:
In a very short time we were given a task of preparing a business plan just in 10-15 mins. For this purpose all the students were selected randomly to form a team. A team was formed with all the students who didn't know eachother. A team of 4-6 members was formed and total of 5 teams were formed. so, we had a great time of brainstorming with those who were having total different mindsets.

After just 15 mins we were asked to present that business plan with helping material(A chart  containing name of business, the logo and the message)..So, it was too much difficult as we had to discuss, dicide a plan and then make a chart and display all the idea on it and present it in front of all. The most interesting thing in this activity was that the judge will call the presenter of his own choice. So, this made it more interesting as every team member was trying to have a full grip on idea. Some of the ides were
1-Business Hospital
2-Maasi
3- Success Institute
4-Unleashing Potential

1-Kamran Rizvi Talk:
                        Kamran Rizvi started the talk with 3 main points of making an organization successful
                        i-   Profitalbility: How your work increase any organization profitability

                        iii- Sustainability: How sustainalbility of any organization increases with your help.
To be successful as there is no shortcut to success so there is need of thorough study. He said," If you want something from any firm, study that organization,research and get what you can do to make that organisation better. You do research, meet employee of that organization to know more about that organization, and after doing such home work then you are capable to go for meeting with the executives which will give positive results.
He added, "If you can't give any tangible thing then you don't need to waste your time as well as others time".

2- Professor Naeem abidi:
                        He talked about personal development. How a person can develop himself to be successful.He added a quotation
"Tum ne Chaha hi nahi Chahnay walo ki tarah( You didn't love me as a lover)" so how it is possible that you can achieve a thing which you never loved. To achieve a thing you need to lose one.As if a man is thirsty he tries to get water.So, without the feelings and passion nobody can be succesful.Naeem sahb has run lots of zero business investment projects in pakistan and specially in Multan city where there almost no support to such persons.Some of his running projects are
1- A training Company
2- A psychological Institute
