Ramlakshmi Subramanian, director at YesGo and SGO presented on the growth of YesGo. She said, “Welcome challenges into your life. They help you become better than what you already are”. 

Speaking at the occasion Nizamappas said, “It is not the incredible profit that count, but the incredible number of years for which the profit-count lasts. Entrepreneurship is about coming up with an idea that solves a common problem, and when your idea can solve the problem, it will never fail. This is the vision with which we started YesGo.”

Nizamappas also felicitated his teachers and mentors from IPT at the ceremony. 

While presenting the vote of thanks to the, Nizamappas said, “A history was penned four years ago when we started as an only institute in Asia for complete practical premedia prepress and packaging training with Esko software and guaranteed placement. We wanted to do something that was never done before, and that is when YesGo happened, and I must say, nothing else could have been better.”

He further added, “We have trained and made placements globally with 104 students so far in the last four years and still the hunting and hunger is on. The students who were honoured and awarded were the perfect example for our institute and they are the ambassador for us, we don’t do marketing they are doing that for us.”

As per Rakhi Das, business development manager at YesGo, “The challenging times of pandemic could never dampen the winning spirit and energy of YesGo and it continued its unabated constant success worldwide.”

“In the span of four years since its inception, YesGo not only spread its pan India presence with branches at Delhi, Bangalore and Mumbai respectively, but also added other diverse innovative ventures under its umbrella - My Print Career e-Tabloid – India’s first employment portal designed exclusively for print and packaging industry and SGO premedia, thus becoming an in-house solution for industrial training, print, pre-press, premedia and manpower – all under one roof,” she concluded.
