Bhubaneswar re-explored: A land of opportunities and playground of new-age leaders

 


The ancient city of Bhubaneswar, sited in India’s eastern state of Odisha, has been ranked as the best destination housing over 2000 beautiful temples. However, with advancements, Bhubaneswar has slowly grown to become an important business centre, with manufacturing and IT as the fastest growing sectors in the city. Owing to the cultural shift taking place towards cosmopolitanism, more than 100 educational institutes have found their base in this city. Likewise, Bhubaneswar has been a witness to the mushrooming of numerous business schools and management institutes offering a range of courses like MBA and PGDM. This city is home to some of the top-ranking colleges that have received rave reviews and are industrially acclaimed. Leading the pack is the International Management Institute (IMI) that was set up in 1981. Other popular names include Xavier University (XUB), KIIT School of Management (KSOM), and Institute of Management and Information Science (IMIS).

What makes IMI-B an ideal institute for students to secure a position in is the fact that their programs provide relevant, meaningful, and innovative experiences that are at par with global practices. Over the years, this institute has changed the way it functions, solely with an intention to offer its aspirants a transformative experience encircled with social relevance and a determination to support as well as strengthen community development. Other than this, the aim of IMI-B, since its commencement, has been to facilitate quality management programs and create futuristic managers with strong values and ethics.

Those presently seeking education at IMI-B and the B-school’s alumni consider and recognize the institute as a world-class learning hub, which the institute rightfully justifies through the creation of short-term and long-term skill development and entrepreneurship development programs.  Not only that, to instil an entrepreneurial mindset amongst aspirants, IMI has lived up to its commitment of not just helping students become good entrepreneurs but also provide the essential resources needed on the route to becoming successful. Other than offering mentoring from industry and in-house faculty members from specialized areas, IMI, through its incubation foundation, is dedicated to supporting startups with the most unique yet valuable functions – let it be business analytics, enterprise systems, or renewable energy among others.

Throughout the year, the institute conducts various activities, whether it is Idea Hunt, Investors’ Summit, or workshops on skill development. This has allowed IMI-B to continually grow and expand whilst bearing the pledges it has towards the students, faculty members, alumni, and staff that they aim to encourage. This same approach is applied to even the academia it develops and alters over time. Emphasis on education is combined with goals towards creativity, innovation, and evolution, which in a way will have a definite roaster of leaders who are recognized, competent, and successful in each of their fields!
