PWK Nationals 2017: A beautiful journey comes to an end

It is always good to come to the end of a journey but it is the journey that matters in the end. The long awaited finale of Presentation WhizKids' "Presentation Success Summit" took place on January 13, 2018. After months of struggle, competition and learning, the finale was a success.

Presentation WhizKids has been a nonstop journey of Presentation Success Movement since 2013. Every year hundreds of teams participate in this competition. This year was no different. Many teams participated and among them 24 teams got selected in the first round. Twelve teams then qualified into the second round and finally the best 5 teams made it to the grand finale. The finalist teams were Con Artists, Karma Police, Cutiezzz, Dudh Bhaat and Break Even.

After some great presentations followed by in-depth analyses, team Con Artists clinched this year's title of the champion of PWK. Team Break Even became the first runner-up with a very close margin and team Cutiezzz, with one of the best presentations in recent times, became the second runner-up. But this year's competition was certainly different than all the previous years. Each finalist team has been guided by outstanding mentors and past winners namely Ayman Sadiq, Ishmam Chowdhury, Sajeed Alam, Samid Razzak, and Abreshmee Haque who guided the finalist teams to fine tune their work.

The winning teams received internship opportunities from leading businesses and the champion team also received a fully paid trip to the beautiful Sundarbans, sponsored by partner Avijatrik Tourism.
