Unreasonable Global Summit and A Week of Exceptional Mentors!

Its the week before the last one.... Cant believe how quickly the days passed by and how soon all of us have become a big family... and then again will have to go our separate ways within 10 days..

However then again we fellows don't know whether to be sad at this idea of leaving the Institute or to celebrate the wonderful times yet prevailing at the Unreasonable Institute, because this week had a lot in store for us! More then anything the first ever Unreasonable Global Summit in the history of the world!

Other then that as always this week have had some the greatest mentors coming in at the Unreasonable House! Such as;
