Abhishek Ghosh
Alumni | IIM Bangalore (Since 1973)
A fish-loving, book-hogging quintessential pseudo-Bengali (read probashi) brought up all over India (Kolkata, Bangalore, Pune and Mumbai). A graduate of the mystical institute in the deserts of Rajasthan (BITS, Pilani). Wanting to continue to procrastinate making life decisions, I hopped aboard the MBA bandwagon at IIM Bangalore. I love great conversations and am always open to explore (the city, cuisines, people and their stories, the works). Francophile, aspiring Egyptologist, swimmer, and adorer of coming-of-age-films and exotic music (often Middle Eastern, Baul or Western Classical). I’ve vacationed with family and spent exchange terms in 24 countries in Europe, 4 countries in Asia and backpacked across my absolute dreamland of Egypt for a month-and-a-half. Founder of QUEst, IIMB— to advocate for rights of minority groups such as LGBTQ, women and PwD.
