YICOF Launched For Media Aspirants

The Young Indian Communicators' Forum (YICOF) announced its launch in Hyderabad in the month of July at HICC at a press conference. This forum aims to function as a Centre For Excellence for growing professionals and students in the mass communications industry.

YICOF, a Ybrants initiative, is set to be a place for young intellectuals to put forth their words of excellence, quench their thirst for knowledge, flaunt their passion, and reach out to faces, places and organisations that need the perfect touch of nascent proficiency.

To associate and serve, experts from various communication fields have joined hands with YICOF.

The Young Indian Communicators' Forum is exclusive to working professionals and students from the fields of Corporate Communications, Media, Advertising, Brand Management, Marketing, Event Management, Film-making, Risk Management, Public Management, Business Management and other media/mass-communication related stream of practice or knowledge.

Membership is open only for members of ages 18 to 35.

Addressing the press conference, National President Aishwarya said, "there has been a huge gap between the experts and growing professionals and students of communication for the past few decades. YICOF will now bridge the gap and get them closer. YICOF is like a gurukul where learning, sharing and practising will be the only policy."

Secretary General and aspiring film-maker Maharshi said, "YICOF is a pool of resources, and the place that amateurs like me - who would otherwise keep waiting in long queues to establish contacts with big shots in the industry - would like to be a part of. YICOF is a promising shelter."

The forum will expand in all major cities in India, and each city's forum will be headed by either a student or a young professional.

The maximum allowed age limit of members is 35 years. This clause has been put up in order to give the youngsters their space.

You can contact Aishwarya, National President, at 92915-48289/098739-11275 or Maharshi, Secretary General, at 9293774155 for further details.
