Pune: Pune Vidyarthi Griha’s (PVG) College of Engineering, Technology & Management has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Progression School to establish an Agentic AI Centre of Excellence on campus.

Industry experts, including Vivek Agrawal, Director of Learning & Development at Excellerant Technologies and Progression School, led the workshop sessions. Entrepreneur Rohit Ghosh delivered insights on AI’s business impact, while Mind Coach Mrs. Mridula Ujwal conducted sessions on stress management for students and participants.
