India Portfolio Day: Gateway for design students to foreign universities

Providing an opportunity to students to interact one-on-one with the leading art and design universities from across the globe under one roof, India Portfolio Day 3 is being held for the third time in November 2018. After two successful years, this year, the event will be held in New Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata, respectively.
