Since inception, IIM Shillong has always given thrust on Sustainability, covering its multiple dimensions. The Annual International Sustainability Conference (SUSCON) of IIM Shillong is the prime vehicle of this Sustainability movement. It offers a global platform for dialogues and deliberations on various aspects of Sustainability from all stakeholders including academicians, business leaders, NGOs, social activists and policy makers. Eminent scholars and experts have shared their valuable insights on various aspects of Sustainability in SUSCON over the years. Sustainable Management is the need of the hour and here we literally start our academic journey with a perfectly designed foundation course on Sustainability which ends with a trek, which is a once in a lifetime experience. At IIM Shillong, we have had Best intern prizes, national competition winners in high numbers. We are family here. You can experience all the seasons in single day here. The pleasant weather and scenic natural beauty brings you close to the mother nature. It’s only 20 days on the campus and I feel like spending rest of my life in Shillong.
Which ABG company would you want to work for and why?
I would want to work for Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Ltd. It is India’s premier fashion house. It partnered with Forever 21, one of the best global fast fashion retail brand. Also women’s fast fashion is the fastest growing segment globally and in India. With rising disposable income & shift in consumer preference towards branded apparels, it is projected that the modern apparel retail is expected to reach USD 37 billion in the next five years from about USD 16 billion currently. So, this company will be a perfect launchpad for my career and will provide me with multiple opportunities and challenges along with immense learning that I have always strived for.
