IMT Ghaziabad’s PGDM Executive Batch Organizes ConneXions 2012

A one day event, ConneXions is being held at the Kapil Mohan Auditorium, IMT Ghaziabad. This year, ConneXions will focus on India growing and becoming a global investment destination. The country, as we know and see, has metamorphosed from being a simplistic society dominated by the traditional methods of production employing land, labour and capital into an economy that is knowledge based. It has grown to use science and scientific management techniques.

Therefore the IMT Ghaziabad PGDM Executive class arrived on the very timely theme for ConneXions. They decided to help empower India to reach higher, faster, better with ‘M-powering India: Man, Money and MBA’. All three elements play key roles in the way an economy develops and grows.

India needs to harness and channelize the power it has in this area and become the change the country wants to see. The PDGM Executive batch at IMT Ghaziabad has organized this event to take the whole concept of Man, Money and MBA into a new realm of growth.

ConneXions opens with lighting of the traditional lamp and a welcome address by Placecom Member Davinder Singh. Addresses by prominent people like Dr. Sita Mishra, PGDM Executive Chairperson, Prakash Pathak, Placement Chair, IMT Ghaziabad and Dr. Bibek Banerjee, Director, IMT Ghaziabad will be followed by the screening of a five minute film on the PGDM Executive class of 2012.
