2. Continuous Dialogue via WhatsApp and Online Platform
- Private WhatsApp group: Highly active during the event for real-time announcements. Discussions continue throughout the year with updates to past ideas and new ideas highlighted. Participants have expressed that the chat is a significant value-add to them. (Participation is optional but recommended during the event to ensure you don’t miss critical announcements.)
- Policy Note: To maintain confidentiality, meet compliance requirements, and ensure fairness, participants who miss two consecutive events are moved to an alumni chat.
- New for 2025: Dedicated Online Forum. To complement our dynamic WhatsApp dialogue, we’re launching an exclusive online forum in 2025. This will provide a more structured space, ensuring that valuable discussions are easily found and don’t get lost in the chat.
