GLS University, a well-known educational institute in Ahmedabad, marked a special milestone this week—its 10th anniversary. The grand event titled “GLSU@10 – Celebrating Legacy, Inspiring Future” was a vibrant and heartwarming celebration that brought together students, leaders, and one very special guest—Aman Gupta, the Co-Founder and Chief Marketing Officer of boAt and one of the most admired sharks on Shark Tank India.
The day began with a cheerful welcome and opening address, setting a warm and energetic tone. The highlight of the celebration was the much-awaited talk session with Aman Gupta, moderated by Dr. Chandni Kapadia, the Executive Director of GLS University. With her natural ease and sharp insight, she guided a delightful conversation that mixed laughter, motivation, and raw entrepreneurial wisdom.
Aman spoke about how boAt started with humble beginnings and went on to become a youth-favorite brand in India. He also gave a peek behind the curtains of Shark Tank India, sharing fun, inspiring, and real stories from his journey. His honesty and humor made everyone in the hall feel connected, especially the students who dream of starting something of their own someday.
A lively question-and-answer round followed, where students asked Aman all kinds of questions—from building a brand to dealing with failures. He answered each question with full honesty and a touch of humor, leaving everyone inspired and smiling. After the session, Aman posed for a selfie with the crowd, creating a moment that students will cherish for years.
Aman was also honored during a Felicitation Ceremony for his outstanding contribution to India’s growing entrepreneurial culture. His journey continues to motivate many across the country.
The celebrations then moved on to an emotional and powerful commemorative segment. Dr. Chandni Kapadia returned to the stage to give the official welcome speech, where she reflected on how far GLS University has come in just 10 years. She spoke about the university’s early days, its big achievements, and how it continues to stay rooted in values inspired by great leaders like Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Shri I.M. Nanavati. “GLS University has not only grown in numbers but also values, impact, and ambition,” she said with pride.
Next, Shri Sudhir Nanavati, President of GLS University, took to the podium and shared an emotional account of GLS’s transformation—from a simple academic trust into a respected, multidisciplinary university. “GLS is a promise—a promise of quality education rooted in integrity, discipline, and excellence,” he said, expressing gratitude towards faculty, students, alumni, and trustees.
One of the most exciting parts of the event was the Launch of the GLS Anthem and GLS Tune. These are more than just songs—they symbolize the heart and soul of the GLS community. As students waved GLS flags and the anthem played, the entire auditorium lit up with flashlights, creating a magical, goosebumps-worthy moment.
The event wrapped up with reflections, closing words, and the National Anthem. But for everyone present, it felt more like a beginning than an end—a fresh chapter in GLSU’s growing legacy.
As it steps into the next decade, GLS University continues to inspire thousands of students with its blend of innovation, culture, and commitment to excellence.
