Last Updated 14 November 2015, 20:01 IST

IIM Bangalore has become the first Indian B-school to host the Global Network for Advanced Management (GNAM) meeting that will take place from November 15 to 17 in the City. Deans and Directors of top 28 global management schools are part of the GNAM.

Delighted to host the prestigious global meeting of deans and directors, Dr Sushil Vachani, Director, IIM Bangalore, said, “We are excited to host the Deans’ meeting of the prestigious GNAM in India. Our affiliation with the GNAM is central to our strategy to provide IIM Bangalore’s students with a rich global perspective and enable our faculty to collaborate on research and teaching programs with peers at leading management schools across the globe.”

Over the last year, IIM Bangalore has deepened its engagement with important international networks, including the GNAM. IIMB Dean of Programs, Sourav Mukherji, recently taught a course in Bengaluru that was beamed to students around the world in a truly global classroom as part of the GNAM.

“This was a unique experience – teaching students from multiple countries across different time zones. There was a young mother from Guatemala who was looking after her child while attending the class, while another student from China was logging into my class through his mobile phone, while sitting in a high-speed train,” said Dr Mukherji.
