Lim from Asian Institute of Management, Manila; Robert Kennedy from IVEY; Eileen Peacock from AACSB International; C Delporte, from EFMD Brussels; Bill Ridgers from The Economist, London; policy makers and influencers such as Sunil Kant Munjal from Hero MotoCorp; Subramanian Swamy, former Union Minister of Commerce & Industry & Senior BJP Leader; SS Mantha from AICTE; R Srinivasan from Department of Higher Education, MHRD, GoI; H Chaturvedi from Education Promotion Society of India and Directors from top Indian MBA B-schools such as ISB, IIM Indore, NMIMS, SP Jain among others.

“We all know the challenges facing Indian MBA education rather well. The first four Indian Management Conclaves held between 2010-2013 had extensively highlighted the key issues such as policy conundrum, miss-match in demand & supply of MBA seats, lack of Employability of MBA graduates, and a focus on delivering quality education that have eroded the credibility of Indian MBA education. Indeed, a lot needs to be done – at a macro, policy level. However, we all need to first do the doable – take actions which are within our ‘Circle of Influence’, and not wait for things to settle down”, said Amit Agnihotri,  Convener, Indian Management Conclave & Chairman, MBAUniverse.com.
