Ever heard of a massive college society that provides opportunities to host events and organize events at the college level, thrive in marketing cum promotion skills and also become a blogger.

COMMERCIUM- The Commerce Society of PGDAV College (DU) is one such society with the motto “WHERE IGNITED MINDS THRIVE”. It is one of the biggest societies in the college and one of the top 10 most prominent departmental societies at Delhi University. With years of legacy, Commercium takes pride in organising two flagship events, i.e YOUTH CONCLAVE and COMMQUEST, an unparalled platform that brings together dynamic young minds, industry leaders and thought provoking speakers.

In our previous edition, the YOUTH CONCLAVE witnessed unprecedented success, engaging panel discussions, live interviews with speakers, insightful workshops, and networking opportunities marked the event's success, creating an impactful experience for all participants.

In addition to the Youth Conclave, our society organises COMMQUEST, the annual commerce fest, another stellar event that emphasizes teamwork, creativity and strategic thinking. Beyond events, we nurture minds through engaging orientations, insightful seminars, and more.
