To

Dear Sir/Madam,

Greetings from VIT!

We are happy to introduce Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT University,

www.vit.ac.in) to you; a cosmopolitan Institute with an in-house strength of
over 17000 students together representing every state of India and 42
countries around the globe. VIT is a world-class Institute imparting Technical &
Management education at the Under-Graduate and Post-Graduate levels.
Technical programs at VIT are accredited by IET & EI UK and ABET, USA. VIT is
one among the top 15 premier institutions in the country.

We are pleased to inform you that VIT University has completed 26 years
since its inception. We, at VIT, realize that education does not occur only in
the classroom, but goes beyond. To facilitate this, VIT conducts an annual
sports and cultural fest called Riviera to give students not only of our college,
but of other engineering colleges as well, a chance to show their talents and
abilities.

It is with immense pleasure, that we invite you to RIVIERA 2011 to be held

between 30th January and 2th February 2011 at our campus. For this
International Meet, we expect over 6000 students from over 250 colleges
across the globe to participate in addition to our own students who are
17,000 in number. In Riviera’10, we had Musical Nights by the popular
Bollywood Singer Shaan, famous South Indian Music Director Devi Sri Prasad,
Rock Concert by Mother Jane- Asia’s No.1 Rock Act and a concert by
Anushka Manchanda in addition to International performance by Fire Fly’s
from Singapore. Stars like V.V.S.Laxman for inaugural and Padmashree Dr.
Kamal Hassan for the valedictory graced the fest by their presence. The
guest of honors included actors like Allu Arjun, Surya, Sneha, Namitha. Last
year, we witnessed over 20,000 footfalls.

This year we promise to be bigger and better both in quality and magnitude.

We humbly request you, to grace this event with your Sponsorship.

We believe that VIT University offers a unique platform to interact and market
your brand amongst the youth that is not possible through the usual channels
of media communication, and that an equally favoured proposition can be
worked upon.
