India Business Conference
May 10, 2008, Donald P. Jacobs Center
Contacts: Amit Bakshi and Roshni Nadar

In recent years, India has become known as a destination for quality talent at affordable prices. But, as the India story continues to develop, it is becoming clear that India has much more to offer. Marketing India’s virtues to the world, as well as its products and services domestically and abroad will become increasingly important as India blazes its way towards becoming an economic superpower. What will India, its companies, people, and values be known for? With “Branding India, Indians, and Indianness” as its theme, the India Business conference will provide a forum for the Kellogg School’s renowned faculty to discuss this issue with the very best business leadership from India. In addition to covering the overall business outlook in India, we will explore India’s unique value proposition in diverse areas such as hospitality, entertainment, and wellness.

With cutting edge panels and fresh keynote speakers, this year’s India Business Conference aims to be broad as well as innovative. We hope you will join us next year for what promises to be the premier conference covering Indian business.
