As the writer succinctly says, “There is no Business like show business. This is why Event Management has emerged as one of the hottest careers and the most sought after adrenalin-charged professions in India today. Every conceivable occasion is looked upon as an endeavour towards crafting corporate identities. Therefore, both marketers and event houses need to train professionals in the new skills, knowledge and expertise required to fully exploit the potential of Event Management.”
