Thank you for the feature! 🤓🙌🏻

But it did not happen overnight. Not finding enough volunteers, I had to take up tasks including contacting speakers, handling social media, press releases, website and coordinating the teams. The venues, asked "who would turn up to hear a Science talk on a weeknight?" 🤓

And this year her dream came true! Pint of Science festival, now held in 27 countries, made its debut in India in Pune, Bengaluru and Delhi. Despite war and floods, the event was a huge success, with full house for most events and several press features across the country 🎉
