IEEE GOLD
GOLD was developed in year 2000 to help young professionals transition from being a student to entering the professional world. The IEEE GOLD Affinity Group of Bangalore Section was formed as an initiative by a few freshers in the IEEE Bangalore section. If you are an IEEE Member who has received your first professional degree within the last ten years, you are automatically part of IEEE GOLD!
The IEEE GOLD Affinity Group of Bangalore Section creates a platform to meet our peers working in other companies, exchange ideas, and mentors across companies, take up and execute projects that involve a group of people and thereby develop leadership skills, ability to work in teams, know about the career options and the kind of work that exist in other companies.
