Globalizing India: Role

Of

Indian B-Schools

3/15

BACKGROUND & THEME

One necessary condition for successful globalization is that the globalizing

economy continuously improves its competitive profile. Recent literature suggests

that the main source of sustainable competitive advantage is the development of

firm-specific resources that generate knowledge. Rising pace of globalization

requires managers of global mindset. Since managers are mostly drawn

form B-schools.

B-Schools have to prepare their students for competing in an open economy, with

products and services originating in India as well as abroad. Indian companies can

not remain static. They must innovate constantly, in products and processes in

India and abroad. It is therefore obvious that the B-schools have major

responsibility of nurturing managers with global mindset.

In this pace of globalization, it has become important to understand the drivers to

internationalization for an institution of higher learning and the response of B-

Schools in redesigning its curricula, program portfolio and international

networking. Change in attitude and policies of regulatory bodies, experiences,

different nature of joint collaborations, joint degrees, importing faculty and

setting up campus in abroad are important issues. It is also equally significant to

know the visions of the Indian B-Schools reflecting their global aspirations.

To explore these dimensions, All-India Management Association (AIMA) is

organizing a conference on the theme Globalizing India: Role of Indian B-

Schools at India International Centre , New Delhi on 12th & 13th January

2011.

OBJECTIVES OF CONFERENCE

To gain an insight from deans and directors of leading B-Schools from India

& Abroad on various facets of globalization of business education that have

impacted B-Schools

to globalization of higher education
