NetIP Goes Beyond Student Life at Boston University

On February 28th, 2009, Sundip Arora, VP of External Affairs for NetIP North America, spoke at the third annual Youth Leadership Symposium hosted by the Boston University Chapter of the US India Political Action Committee (USINPAC). Arora was invited to be on the “Beyond Student Life” panel, and to talk specifically about his experiences with NetIP.

The focus of the event was to unite motivated students and young professionals with prominent leaders in our society today and also to take proactive steps towards addressing key issues including the economy, politics, health-care, culture, and business.
Arora felt privileged to represent NetIP at the third annual USINPAC Youth Leadership Symposium at Boston University. It was clear that those who attended the symposium were looking for direction and motivation in a tough economic environment. “Speaking on the “Beyond Student Life” panel, my focus was to help students realize the value that a strong network like NetIP can bring to their careers and inspire them to pursue areas where they could make a difference. It was exciting to witness the passion and leadership of the BU students organizing this symposium. My hope is that they would be equally inspired to become more active in their communities through organizations like NetIP”.
