Bengaluru, September 24, 2024: IIM Bangalore recently hosted the 15th edition of the annual EPGP Business Conclave, a flagship event of the Executive Post Graduate Programme in Management (EPGP). This year’s conclave was themed on, ‘Developing Future Leaders: Skills Beyond Technology’, and delved into the essential skills that transcend technology, exploring how leaders can harness the power of human potential to drive sustainable growth and innovation.  

The EPGP Business Conclave, serves as a distinguished platform for profound discussions on contemporary topics and emerging trends. The event features CXOs, strategists, technology evangelists, thought leaders, entrepreneurs and professionals who come together to analyze real-world business scenarios, deliberate on their social impact and stimulate meaningful discussions. 

During his welcome address Prof. Rishikesha T Krishnan, Director, IIM Bangalore  said “Companies that have enduring success do not depend on technology alone – other skills and knowledge are essential as well. During a review meet with external CEOs, the must-have elements of an MBA programme curriculum listed by them included digital, data and ESG, other than traditional components such as communication, leadership, problem solving, ethics and integrity. In that way, the essence of EPGP, a well-rounded programme, is similar to the theme of today’s conclave”
