Salzburg Serendipity

s.550, 2015 & s.264, 1987

Sandeep Parekh was recommended by another Fellow to attend a Salzburg Global session. It was only after he had registered that he found out his father Pravin, now a Supreme Court Judge in India, had come to Salzburg as a young lawyer nearly 30 years earlier. Sandeep: "My father went to Salzburg in 1987. The mock trial (a common practice during the law Sessions in the 1980s) and other highly memorable instances, especially at the dinner table, still remain with him. Fast forward to 2015, after nearly three decades: having heard great things about the beauty of the city and also the incredible experience my father had, I had come to Salzburg with high expectations. And I wasn't disappointed. Our sessions and breakout groups were of the highest quality thinkable. The participants, seasoned and at the top of their profession, gave their entire self for the three days there and created an incredible intellectual churn."
