ISB Leadership Summit...

In the past weeks, I have been alluding to an event thats going to happen at ISB... After all the background developments, some hard work from a core team of students, the dream of a global summit hosted by ISB is finally coming through... ISB will conduct the ISB leadership summit in december... 10 to 14th... 4 days of key note speakers, debates, colloqiums, inter b-school events culminating in an alumni reunion...

For the past 2 years, ISB's student clubs have been holding their own events, inviting speakers, conducting competitions etc. This year, an idea was mooted... why not put together all the funds different clubs get to conduct one single 4 day summit, inviting the best brains from both the academia and industry... lot of credit should go to a core team of students who have been working very hard, drawing up budgets, catching up with sponsors and convincing the management about the idea. The dean and deputy dean have been more than just responsive, encouraging us in every step... and all has culminated in the "ISB leadership summit". Still a long way to go, if we pull it off, it will be a grand event and a great advertisement for ISB... A separate web site for the summit is coming up and will be online soon... The logo that I designed for this event is here... The list of speakers is impressive, though I am not sure how many will manage to attend given we started a bit late... This idea and contacts with the outside world started only last month... Maybe we could have planned it out to start in May, as soon as we entered, but it took time for the idea to crystallize... One thing that I am sure is that, whatever we do, we will leave an event, which if planned early enough, will be a highlight in the indian business calender every year...

thats it for now... for more info, just wait until the website comes up :) Back to my assignments!
