We are proud to share the resounding success of ASCENT 2026, the landmark 1st Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the ISTD Kozhikode Chapter, conducted on 28th June 2026 at the KPM Tripenta, Kozhikode.
It was an evening where formal professional excellence met deep, heartfelt camaraderie, driven by an exceptional turnout of our members.
