Making Indian Manufacturing Competitive - from IIM Indore Director's Desk
By an interesting coincidence, I spent two successive days last week attending events related to manufacturing competitiveness. The first was a panel discussion organised by CII Malwa Zone to coincide with the launch of the Prime Minister of India’s new “Make for India” campaign, and the second was a day-long seminar designed by the Institute for Competitiveness (IfC) that culminated in the award of the Porter Prize.
Final Placements : IIM Indore UAE – Class of 2014
We've recently started reporting on the final placements at IIM Indore UAE in our InsideIIM format. Our knowledge about this program continues to remain a bit sketchy, because of its short history and because it is out of our network. You can read our introductory post on the MBA programme of IIM Indore UAE here. Students and recruiters reading this are requested to do their own research. On the other hand, we continue to receive several queries about this programme on our portal, and we are happy to furnish the placement report in the InsideIIM format, as confirmed by the placement committee at IIM Indore UAE (placements at IIM Indore UAE are independently handled by the institute's own placement committee at UAE, and the parent campus does not actively help in the placement process).
