Happy New Year readers! The last few months before the new year has been a fantastic (yet busy) one for YMA. Let me recount the events so far:

Marketing for Dummies held in October was a huge success; many members (old and new) came and learned what marketing was about and got to speak with our speakers in the end (for pictures, please see the last post!)

Market Yourself 101 (MY101) in November allowed YMA members to learn about the different fields in marketing and the recruitment process. Members also gained valuable insights from the one-on-one interviews with our guest speakers.

December led way to Round 1 of the Apprentice (our marketing case competition) sponsored by General Mills. Winning team for this round was Team Synergy with members Abhinav Sawhney and Kazi Uddin with their “Vita” cereal idea. The top five teams are qualified for Round 2, which include:

1. Team Synergy with Abhinav Sawhney & Kazi Uddin
2. Team Asus with Benny Ussyshkin & Daran Somasundaram
3. Team Edge with Joanna Gussmann & James Dempsey
4. Team Skyll with Tayyab Rizvi & Harsimran Gill
5. Team Mastermind with Ryan Lee & Marcella Lok

So that pretty much sums up our events in the past few months. Now, you may wonder what we may have next for all you lovely people. Well, wait no longer! What we have in store for you will revolutionize the way you think about marketing.
