“If a tree falls in a forest with no one to hear it, then does it make a sound?” – George Berkeley
The answer is simple: NO. This is where Media Cell comes into picture. We are the ones who make sure that every time anything happens at IIM K, the ripples it generates makes waves outside.

The Media Cell at IIM Kozhikode is responsible for public relations and the institute’s branding in various news media – print, television and online. It’s the primary interface between the IIMK community and the media and communicates the institute’s activities and accomplishments to the outside world. Other than generating original content, Media Cell is also responsible for media planning for IIMK’s flagship events, in tandem with various other student committees. Media partnerships, both on and off the campus, materialize through the Media Cell.

Additionally, MC maintains two blogs supported by the student community:
The beautiful Verdance Photo Blog and a peek into life and happenings at the institute at The K Files

Activities in the past year
Media cell was associated with the coverage of all the major events and business summits at IIMK last year : Arthanomics – the Finance Seminar, Backwaters – the fest, Horizons – the Management Conclave, Synapse – the Marketing Conference, AIMS – the Technology Summit, Social Services Group fete and Sangram - IIMK-IIMB sports meet.
We also prepared a branding strategy for IIM-K and were involved in getting the B-School surveys to the campus. Other than getting several student-written articles published in various media, Media Cell also worked as a guest editor for a month for India Infoline.
