IMC 2023 Conference Theme
Following extensive discussions with senior academics from prestigious institutions like IIMs, SPJIMR, XLRI, and other prominent B-schools, an incredibly stimulating and pertinent conference theme has been crafted.

Announcing the cutting-edge theme for the 13th IMC 2023, Mr. Amit Agnihotri stated, "Over the past two decades, Technology and Digitization have revolutionized business practices, and the ascent of Artificial Intelligence will amplify this transformation. How should B-schools reshape their objectives, curriculum and pedagogy in response to these monumental shifts? This essential inquiry will be addressed at IMC 2023. Thus, the theme for IMC 2023 is "Business Value Creation in the Age of Disruption: Implications for Management Education."

To address this theme, IMC has invited top speakers from both the Corporate World and leading Global Academic Institution. Speakers will be unveiled very soon.
