Two evenings of warmth, camaraderie and celebration
In celebration of Brigade Group's 15th anniversary, customers, staff, associates, friends and well-wishers of Brigade Group met at Chowdiah Hall on the 25th and 26th July, for two evenings filled with camaraderie and warmth. M.R. Jaishankar, Managing Director, Brigade Group, summarised the spirit of the occasion as he spoke about the past years and described the company's latest and most ambitious project: Brigade Millennium. Presented below are a few highlights of the celebrations.
Millennium project launched on the occasion
The focus on the first day was the launch of Brigade Millennium—a residential enclave in J.P. Nagar, set in 22 acres of green serenity. In his speech, Chief Guest Ashok Soota, Chairman of CII and also of MindTree Consulting, said that credit is given to software industries for the phenomenal growth of Bangalore, while the real credit should go to people like the Brigade Group because it is the infrastructure they create that makes growth of other industries possible.
Indira Sharma, General Manager—Marketing, made a slide presentation on the project. This was followed by a corporate film which perfectly captured and reflected the spirit and philosophy of Brigade Group.
Awards presented to winners of Millennium Club Design Competition
The Millennium Club Design Competition was the next item on the agenda. The purpose of the competition, held between April and July, was to tap the minds and talents of young architects in designing a Club of international standards, to be located on the Millennium campus. A film showcasing moments from the competition was shown. Jaishankar then presented cheques and certificates to the winners. Certificates and mementos were also presented to the jury, in appreciation of their effort and involvement.
"We couldn't have done it without you”
On the second day, certificates were presented to Brigade Group's associates, in appreciation of their invaluable contributions to the company's success. Both the corporate film and the slide presentation were screened, to much applause.
Excellent tea, elegantly served
Both evenings began with a High Tea catered by the Taj Group of Hotels. Guests had a chance to meet the Brigade team and mingle with each other.
Informative displays, beautiful decor
Guests were treated to a display of Brigade's work—in the form of panels and photographs— and to the architectural plans and models that won the top three prizes in the Brigade Millennium Club Design Competition. The display was arranged in the foyer of Chowdiah Hall, and made an impressive sight, framed as it was by a turquoise,
mirrored doorway and two massive arrangements of similarly coloured orchids.
Inside the auditorium, the stage was dominated by two tall, rectangular glass sculptures that seemed magically lit in luminous blue. A large cut-out of Brigade Towers, with white and blue lights in the windows, drew admiring comments from the audience.
A child prodigy performs
On both evenings, the programme included a violin invocation to Lord Ganapathy by eleven-year-old Aneesh Vidyashankar, a child prodigy who began learning the violin at the age of six.
The Nrityagram Dance Ensemble dazzles
Both evenings ended with an unforgettable performance of four separate dances by the Nrityagram Dance Ensemble. The dance programme was choreographed by Guru Kelucharan Mahapatra. The dance ensemble comprised Priyambada Pattnaik, Ayona Bhaduri, Pavithra Reddy and Bijoyini Satpathy.
