The New Beginning Of MSChamps In 2019

Happy New Year to you all... In this article I'm going to introduce a series of meetups for ICT enthusiasts. Yeah... It's about Microsoft Student Champs monthly meetups. In this year, I got a chance to become a member of MSChamps organizing committee. That's why I write this article to inform you about this session series and what you can get as benefits by participating these sessions.

What is MSChamps (Microsoft Student Champs)

Microsoft Student Champs program is a monthly meetup series which helps to recognize top young minds around the country who are passionate about technology and let them to learn new technologies together.
It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity for students to develop real world skills for their future career, to help others learn technology and to connect with other motivated techie students, and to build relationships with industry professionals while studying, having a ton of fun along the way.

What's new in 2019

MSChamps meetups series was started in 2011 with several other programs. Many students have participated in those times. Because of some reasons, MSChamps meetup series was paused for few years and it started again by a group of few inspired people in 2018. This is the one and only Microsoft Student Champs meetup in the world but there are some similar meetups in the world. 
In 2019, Anju aiya formed a new OC including me ;) to organize MSChamps meetup series for 2019. We hope to continue the meetup series with lot of hands on sessions and activities. Each meetup will be held under a specific topic to deliver a better knowledge in a specific area in the ICT field and all the sessions will be delivered by enthusiastic industrial professionals and Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals. Hope to conduct some fun events and a lot of freebies and gifts are getting ready for participants. 

Sessions in MSChamps

In each and every meetup, 2 or 3 industrial professionals deliver speeches, mentoring sessions and hands on sessions, which are very important for techie people, who need to know latest trending technologies and future of the ICT industry. There will be a session from a university student also who like to share his/her knowledge with others. This is a good opportunity to students who need to develop presentation skills. Here you can introduce yourselves to the industrial experts and other university students while adding some value to your profile and CV.
