We, the SIMSREE Finance Forum, aim at bridging the gap between students and the corporate world through various competitions, publications and interactive sessions.
FISCUS is our annual finance summit intended to enlighten the students through the discussion amongst eminent personalities on various topics impacting the economy. The event is a panel discussion over different current themes every year. The theme for Fiscus’18, that was held in February, 2018, was “Advent of Blockchain: The new superpower…revolution that will change our planet”. Industry stalwarts from Microsoft, Deloitte, Boston Consultancy Group, Morgan Stanley amongst others graced the occasion.
