Though I have been a PG user for a long time now, I have never had the opportunity to interact with many of you at a personal level. This year however, PG has touched every aspect of my CAT preparation right upto the dreadful wait for the results.
So, I am definitely looking forward to be a part of the meet. I might feel a little lost because I don't know many personally  , but I am sure I will come out with a lot of memories and friends....
Looking forward to my first AIPGM... Converts: IMI (PGP), IMT(PGDM-IT), NITIE, SJMSOM IIT-B, TAMPI, NIRMA, DOMS IIT-M, MDI (PGPHR), NMIMS, IIM-L | | | | | The Following 4 Users Say Thank You to nagendra_s_1983 For This Useful Post: | | | | | |

I wished to come, but then thought the 20 hour bus journey would be back-breaking. Besides, the 20 hr journey would be followed by a 24 hr stay in B'lore and then the same crucifying journey back to Bombay.
So i had given up on AIPGM. But then, now I shall take a train from B'lore at night and reach Bombay on Monday night. So, yes, I am in. Unless i don't land a tatkal AC 3 tier tkt on Udyan Express  .
Hope to see you in B'lore! Not everything that counts can be counted; not everything that can be counted counts. | | | | | The Following 6 Users Say Thank You to ankur4581 For This Useful Post: | | | | | |

HP - Hewlett Packard has agreed to sponsor the meet  phew!!!
Now, please read this carefully. I will be starting a new thread once things get more clear.Till then,based on the amount we have received for the sponsorship, here are the details - Resort - Rs 800 per person - SPONSORED. So once you are at the AIPGM, you dont have to pay for the accommodation and food Travel - 1> For the people who can only come to the AIPGM by flight except Mumbai-Pune Junta( This means travel time by bus/train more than 16 hours e.g Delhi, Kolkata,Ahmedabad ) - We can sponsor 12 people, 75% of the ticket amount.25% is to be borne by you. You will have to book the ticket yourself. People who are interested in this, please PM me with the following details -
Name -
User Id -
Location -
Email Id -
Phone Number -
Remarks if Any -
If we have more than 12 people, we will have a lucky draw. Deadline to add your name - 14th May, 5 PM.
Announcement of the final list after the lucky draw - 14th May, 7 PM.
You will be required to book your own tickets and give us a copy of your e-ticket for reimbursement. As it is usual in this industry, getting the payment takes around 2-3 months.So, we will reimburse the amount as soon as we receive the payment from HP. 2> For the Mumbai - Pune junta
We will be travelling to Bangalore, ONE WAY, as per the plan by a Volvo, and this will be paid by the attendees themselves. Sponsorship is for the return flight ticket from Bangalore to Mumbai for this.Preferably we would like to do bulk booking for this, hence please confirm asap. For first 25 people.If there are more than 25 people, we will distribute the amount equally. Please PM grondmaster in the same format as above if you belong to this group. 3> For females.
100% Sponsorship for the fare.Wherever you are coming from, by any means. Please PM me in the same format as above if you belong to this group. 4> For everyone else .( e.g. Bangalore,Chennai,Hyderabad,Cochin etc.. )
You will have to take care of all your expenses to reach AIPGM venue.Stay and food is sponsored.
Please PM Macora in the same format as above if you belong to this group.
I know this is not a perfect plan to distribute the sponsorship.But this is the best we could come up with after lot of brainstorming and we wanted everyone to spend at par.I dont think so, but if there is any money left after this exercise, we will reimburse it equally  .
So spread the news, and let us finalise the attendees.Maximum we can get is 80.
More later, if there any queries, post them here!!!! 
Cheers,
Rohit
