WELCOME TO INDIA CONFERENCE 2009
On behalf of Harvard Business School's South Asian Business Association, we are pleased to welcome you to the 2009 India Conference.
The HBS India Conference is one of the largest student-run conferences in the US and has a strong legacy of creating a platform to allow business men and women, policymakers, and those involved in academia to meaningfully debate and discuss how India can fulfill her global potential.
The 2009 HBS India Conference is appropriately themed, "The Indian Growth Story: Sleeping Elephant or Roaring Tiger?" and aims to project a balanced view, highlighting both the opportunities as well as the challenges of doing business in India.
This year's conference will feature presentations by prominent keynote speakers as well as twelve panel discussions / debates on the following areas: Building Brands in India, Energy, Entrepreneurship, Global Indians, Healthcare, Infrastructure, Knowledge Economy, Media and Entertainment, Private Equity, Retail, Social Enterprise and Venture Capital. In addition, the Conference will provide an opportunity for the attendees to network and interact closely with prominent members of the Indian business community and to learn about their industries and companies as well as gain insights on potential career opportunities.
The Indian growth story has been generating increasing excitement at HBS and we are confident that the 2009 India Conference will showcase the country's achievements and potential to both students and professionals.
