Former English Cricket Team Captain David Gower spoke on the topic of “Lessons from the Cricket Field”.
The Centenary oration was to cherish the memory of Mr Narayanan, Chairman Emeritus, Sanmar Group, who was an astute entrepreneur, quick to sight opportunities, had an excellent understanding of technology, superior people skills, wisdom and wit in the face of challenges.
