Giving to ISB

Dean's Message

"Achieving world-class quality and reputation requires continued support. Your generosity has helped deserving students pursue world-class education, supported our faculty and laid the foundation in our journey to become a top-ranked research driven business school."

Rise to Raise

The Indian School of Business (ISB) is perhaps one of the largest and finest examples of philanthropic endeavour and impact in recent times.

Supported entirely by private corporations, foundations, and individuals from around the world, the ISB is a not-for-profit organisation. A world-class facility, global curriculum, top-notch faculty, and high-quality students have taken the ISB to new realms of recognition in just a short span. The impact in the real world is made through research which has impacted society, public policy and business and through the employment generation made possible by the immense success of our alumni either through their ventures or through growth of the companies they work for.

Yet this task can gain momentum only with support from organisations and business leaders with verve and vision - the ones who believe that institutions of higher learning have a multiplier effect.

In the coming years, we intend to accelerate our investments in our research by recruiting the best faculty and start new research initiatives. Furthermore, we plan to introduce disruptive offerings to our education programmes and continue to keep our world-class education accessible. To be resilient in times of crisis and disruptions, we must invest in building an endowment now. All this requires support from visionary leaders through philanthropic contributions.

Alumni Giving

THE ALUMNI ENDOWMENT FUND

It is an outstanding initiative by our alumni since endowments provide the most stable and sustainable source of funds for a school. The Alumni Endowment Fund is even more important since the overall endowment levels for the School is not currently at par with other top global business schools and this lays the groundwork for us to propagate this initiative.

Endowments are crucial for financial freedom and long-term sustainability of our activities. The Alumni Endowment Fund was seeded with the generous support from PGP Co 2004. The Alumni Endowment Fund support tuition waivers and research fellowships at the school. The Fund has so far supported around 40 tuition waivers and 3 research fellows at the ISB.
