Coca Cola Youth Speak Forum,

About the event

Coca Cola YouthSpeak Forum is a premier event which AIESEC as an organisation, has a legacy of organising this event throughout the world, every year. This year, Coca Cola YouthSpeak Forum is happening on the 18th of November, 2018 at Vidya Mandir Auditorium (10am - 4pm) in Kolkata.The basic idea of this event is to bring together top young leaders and senior business leaders from various backgrounds to form a diverse cross-sector and multigenerational space, revolving around pressing affairs which are the need of the hour. The aim is to generate actionable ideas and initiatives to be taken forward to impact the world. So YouthSpeak Forum is unique as an event because it focuses on creating action steps following conversations , rather than just talking about social issues.

AIESEC is the world's largest youth organisation and is a non-governmental not-for-profit organisation in consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), affiliated with the UN DPI, member of ICMYO, and is recognised by UNESCO. AIESEC is present in 127 countries and provides leadership development to young individuals through cross-cultural exchanges, volunteer and professional internships, and impactful events across the globe.

On 25 September 2015, the 193 countries of the UN General Assembly adopted the Sustainable Development Goals. It is well known to the world how the United Nations has been giving so much importance to the Sustainable Development Goals since 2015. AIESEC, as a youth-run organisation working closely with the United Nations, it is paramount that we also do the same. Having said that, this is here where the USP of the Youth Speak Forum lies. The whole event is planned in a way that it circles around the Sustainable Development Goals. Hence, it is a great platform for associating your organisations and brands to youth empowerment and UN Sustainable Development Goals.

We see Youth Speak Forum as a great platform to connect with the youth and give back to the society in the most modest ways possible. Also we have various networking spaces so that your organisation can connect with leading innovators from diverse backgrounds as well as social entrepreneurs and government organisations. You can also hold workshops for delegates based on any ONE of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals which is is in sync with the company's vision, or something the company is passionate about. This can serve as a great interaction space between the youth and the company.

Our strength lies on the fact that we are the youth representatives of Kolkata with a social media outreach of more than 4,40,00 with an average audience of 700+ delegates for the event representing over 6 Universities like Calcutta University, Jadavpur University, St Xavier's University, Techno India University, Presidency University, MAKAUT, and innovative leaders from diverse sectors.

We hope to hear from you at the earliest so that we can take the conversation forward.

Thanks & Regards;

Why should you sponsor?

YouthSpeak Forum is a premiere event that brings together both young and senior leaders to form a diverse cross-sector and multi-generational space for inspiring conversations around pressing global issues. The forum aims to create an environment where people from diverse backgrounds can cross-pollinate ideas, share insights and gain new perspectives to create actionable outcomes to push the world forward.

#INSPIRE

To create change, it must also change mindsets. Every YouthSpeak Forum is arranged to inspire the delegates through experiential learning, power talks and keynote speakers. We want to open the minds of delegates to think differently and spark new innovations.

#ENGAGE

Creating a positive impact requires different strengths and capabilities. By bringing together people from diverse backgrounds across sectors and geographies, we form a rich learning environment where speakers from varying organizations bring challenging perspectives and help spark opinions from the delegates.

#ACT

Taking action is the most important part. As inspiration and engagement occurs throughout the day, we want to ensure that delegates are given the chance to group together and form the sense of ownership and commitment towards the ideas and projects they pitch. We connect resources and networks with the projects to enable a real impact to occur.
