About Us
We are a group of about 200 students drawn together by a keen interest in the Media and Entertainment Industry. A few of us have worked in the Media Industry before coming to the ISB, while the rest of us are here because we want a deeper understanding of an industry that touches everyone’s life and has tremendous potential and scope for growth. The club’s initiatives are driven by a 11-member core team whose mandate includes, but is not limited to facilitating interactions between top industry leaders and students and enabling those who wish to make a career switch into this industry gain a deeper understanding of the media through workshops and information sessions.
The club's broad philosophy can be gauged by its mission and vision statements, which are
Vision: To build and establish ISB as a knowledge partner for the Media and Entertainment industry and provide a platform for young leaders who possess a unique blend of creativity and business acumen
Mission: The Media & Entertainment Club strives to increase awareness in the media and entertainment arenas through education and professional opportunities, network-building with alumni and industry representatives, and showcasing the creative talent and artistic diversity within the ISB community.
Every year the Club hosts the ISB Media Conclave, a forum for India’s foremost media and entertainment industry leaders to discuss key issues that impact their business. Last year the Conclave was held on August 14, 2009 and played host to a wide range of prominent personalities such as Sanjeev Bikhchandani (founder of Naukri.com), Ambareesh Murty (Country manager, eBay India), Alok Kejriwal (Founder and CEO, Games2Win), AP Parigi (MD, Enil), Bhaskar Das (Executive President, BCCL), Rajesh Sawhney (President, Reliance Entertainment), Shravan Shroff (MD, Fame India), Ravi Kiran (CEO – South Asia, Starcom MediaVest Group) and Puneet Kinra (CEO, Balaji Telefilms).
