On behalf of the students of the
Indian School of Business (ISB), we take great pleasure
in announcing the launch of the ISB Leadership Summit (ILS
2006).
The Leadership Summit is the flagship event of ISB and a
platform for evoking thought leadership in a global
business environment. The summit is an ideal platform
for today’s eminent leaders to meet and inspire the
leaders of tomorrow.
This year’s summit is a tribute to the achievements
of young leaders of India, in the fields of business,
politics, academic, literature and sports. These leaders
have a vision for ‘India Next’, which we will explore
and discuss in our summit.
Date: January 11,
2006
Venue: Indian School of Business, Hyderabad
Theme: India Next
ILS ’06 shall focus on the following
two issues:
-
Opening Keynote: India
Inc., An odyssey - Low cost to high value:
This address would deal with the transformation that
India is undergoing from being a low cost player in
the global arena to being a provider of high value.
-
Panel Discussion 1 - Youth
Participation in Politics: We explore the
motivations for the ‘educated’ youth to consider
politics as a mechanism to make a positive
difference to society. Over the recent years,
several young and educated Indians have embarked on
the path of politics and are making significant
contributions ranging from the grass root level to
the halls of Indian parliament. We will discuss the
impact the participation of youth has on our system.
-
Panel Discussion 2 - The
synergy between government and business in ‘India
Next’: We explore the importance of
public-private partnerships in developing the social
infrastructure in India. We aim to address issues
related to the government shedding control and
encouraging involvement of business in development.
Complimenting the same, with the role of business in
creating synergies with the government to enable the
benefits of development to percolate across the
social fabric and diversity within the nation.
