An evening for CSE and IT alumni in Bengaluru

Faculty from the department are coming to Bengaluru to meet alumni and the people building what comes next. Come to hear what CSE at IIT Kharagpur is working on now, say what you think it should be working on, and find a concrete way to be part of it.

Registration and high tea

Talks, panels, startup ecosystem launch and the pledging ceremony

Poster session, themed networking and dinner

Liquor available at a cash bar.

The evening runs across two blocks. The first is talks and panels: the department's direction, alumni and faculty voices, a panel on where computing and CSE at KGP are headed, the launch of the startup ecosystem, and a pledging ceremony. The second is networking: a technical poster session, themed zones matched to what you are looking for, and dinner served throughout.

What to expect

  • A room full of IIT KGP CSE and IT alumni now working across top product companies, startups and research roles in Bengaluru.
  • Real, unfiltered career stories, not LinkedIn highlight reels.
  • A candid department talk on what CSE KGP is building.
  • A panel on hard industry problems worth academic attention, and where the industry is headed.
  • Seven to eight faculty members introducing themselves and their work.
  • A technical poster session showing what current students are building.
  • Purposeful, themed networking matched to your own interests, not generic small talk.
  • Good food, good conversation, zero corporate stiffness.

Why come

  • Networking. Build and refresh your circle of IIT KGP alumni in Bengaluru's tech industry.
  • Give back. Mentor current students, guide undergraduate research, or answer a faculty member's specific ask.
  • Get in early on the startup ecosystem. Invest, mentor, or incubate ventures.
  • Shape direction. Weigh in during the panel on where computing and CSE at KGP should go next.
  • See the department's progress firsthand, through the technical poster session.
  • Just for fun. An evening with people who share the same campus memories.
