IIMB PGP Inaugural and Distinguished Alumni Awards

 IIM Bangalore, my alma mater, chose three distinguished alumni for the awards. This awards ceremony was also combined with the inauguration of the 50th batch of PGP (MBA). I was among the invitees and it was wonderful listening to the achievements of the awardees in different areas- the corporate world (Abhijit), entrepreneurship (Teamlease) and Social Entrepreneurship (Samina). They were from these batches-

  • Abhijit Roy, PGP 1991
  • Ashok Reddy, PGP 1995
  • Samina Bano PGP 2010

The Chief Guest, Rashmi Mohanty, also was an alum, and is now the CFO at SBI Cards. There were around 600 new entrants into the MBA programs lapping up every word. Some pics..
