#guest lectures

Shri Ram Group, Jabalpur, has always stayed committed to providing the necessary skills and valuable insights needed by its students to thrive in today’s professional landscape. We can see the commitment of Shri Ram Institute of Technology, the best private engineering college in Jabalpur, from its recent back-to-back guest lectures event on September 1, 2025.

The title of the Event was “Double the Knowledge, Double the Impact,” and was held in the SRIT’s EC Seminar Hall to leave a lasting impression on the students. The main objective of the guest-lecture event is to impart knowledge and vital skills needed by students to thrive in today’s evolving technological landscape.

Speakers of the Guest Lectures’ Event

Speaker 1-Mr. Arun Saxena, the Chief Technology Officer of Clodlex.ai

The first speaker of the event was Mr. Arun Saxena, who gave a lecture on “Evolving Industry Landscape and its Emerging Opportunities.” Here, he showed a deep understanding of both the present and future technological trends. Simultaneously, Mr. Arun Saxena focused on how industries are frequently changing their strategies and business operations via machine learning, automation, and innovative AI techniques.

Other than talking about the challenges, Mr. Arun revealed the opportunities that young professionals and businesses may use with ease. The valuable insights provided by the CTO, Mr. Saxena, encouraged students to focus on unique aspects along with their regular career paths. In this way, the guest lecture on the industry’s landscape and its opportunities allows attendees to prepare for their future roles by emphasizing the significance of adaptability and continuous learning.

Speaker 2-Ms. Patralika Dutta, the HR Manager at Lexvia.ai

Once the inspiring session by Mr. Saxena ended at SRIT, the best private engineering college in Jabalpur, the event continued with the guest lecture session by Ms. Patralika Dutta. She is the HR Manager at Lexvia.ai, and her topic was “Skills Required for Recruitment in the Modern Workplace.” During her speech, she provided a practical guide to navigate the complex and challenging job market. She mainly highlighted the points that modern employers often want in applicants.  

Ms. Patralika Dutta primarily focused on developing certain soft skills to make any applicant stand out instead of simply advising on resume and portfolio building activities. These include communication, problem-solving, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence. Ms. Dutta even gave valuable tips to create a strong brand, leverage anyone's professional networks, and prepare for interviews with sound technical expertise.  

Feedback from Students and Faculties

Both the students and faculty members showed their positive feedback and appreciated the perfect blend of high-level yet latest industry trends with actionable and practical advice. The guest lectures equipped students with motivation and the vital tools to commence their bright careers.  

Experts’ Comment on the Guest Lecture Event

Every Wednesday on my timetable, from 11am-12.30pm we have someone speak to my class over MS Teams and it's where we get people who work in the industry to come and speak about their experiences, their job, how they got there etc.

The guest I will be talking about is Beth. She works as a global creative visual merchandising assistant (VM for short) at ALLSAINTS for womenswear.

She attended NUA (Norwich Uni of the Arts) which is the same one I attend- o̿ ̭ o̿

So to get to where she is, she graduated from the Fashion Communications & Promotions (FCP for short because I ain't typing that all out) course at NUA (same course I'm on!) 6 years ago! She enrolled in 2015 and started interning in her second year.

In 2017 she did a 3 month internship at Vivienne Westwood and in 2018 graduated with a degree with honours.

In 2018 she did a 2 month internship at Lulu Guinness which is a brand that sells expensive handbags✨✨

During that same year she did a 6 month internship at Jimmy Choo which is another luxury brand (no seriously, there's a pair of shoes which is £825, trust).

In 2019-2021 she became a VM assistant at Astrid & Miyu (luxury jewellery brand). She then became the senior VM at the same company.

Still in 2021 she became the global creative VM for womenswear clothing at ALLSAINTS which is a luxury clothing brand. And she's still working there to this day! *((♛‿♛))

Beth gave some good advice for graduates or other people wanting to become a VM. If people are interested then they should figure out what side they want to be in.

She says that the more one progresses through the career, they'll find themselves being on more the creative side. Someone could be a field manager or they could be on the creative side.

Beth also stated that being a VM is a huge role with a lot of variety depending on the role someone picks and the type of brand they want to go for.
