Reimagining Business Management: Policies Fostering Inclusion, Innovation and Technology
Established in 1984 and accredited by AACSB, AMBA and EQUIS, the Indian Institute of Management Lucknow is fifth in the prestigious IIM family of management schools to be established in India. With a desire to create value-driven leaders, managers, and global players, the institute undertakes a diverse range of academic activities aimed at the creation, dissemination and application of management knowledge and practice. In 2005, IIM Lucknow broadened its leadership in management education by establishing the first-ever satellite campus dedicated exclusively to Executive Education in Noida, within the Delhi NCR region. This landmark expansion reinforced the institute’s commitment to shaping future-ready leaders. IIM Lucknow is committed to inculcate human values and professional ethics in the students so as to help them make a positive impact not just on the nation but on a global platform.
Energized by the success of the past doctoral workshops, IIM Lucknow aims to create a forum where the best scholars from India and abroad can define the future course of management thought and practice. Globally we are witnessing increased interest in many management and policy level initiatives that require looking at national and global developments from different perspectives. Understanding effective firm operations and societal wellbeing is critical for overall growth in an economy. This three-day conference will give a platform to exchange thought-provoking ideas and issues in various business functions and domains of management. The forum will emphasize capacity building to help render research into effective management practices. To encourage greater collaboration between researchers and industry, the conference will develop a collaborative platform to identify research priorities and suggest practically relevant emergent solutions.
As AIRC, we explore the transformative power of artificial intelligence and its growing impact across industries. This year’s theme, “Reimagining Business Management: Policies Fostering Inclusion, Innovation and Technology” emphasizes the role of forward-looking policies in integrating inclusion, innovation, and technology to reshape business management and address complex challenges.
Technological advancement is no longer merely a passing trend; it has become a transformative force reshaping business management and organizational practices. From streamlining operations to enabling data-driven insights at unprecedented speed, innovation holds immense potential.
This conference will bring together academicians, researchers, and practitioners to exchange ideas, share best practices, and inspire innovative approaches to contemporary business management. Through collaborative dialogue, participants will explore how inclusive policies, innovation, and emerging technologies can be effectively leveraged to address complex challenges and build a sustainable and equitable future.
Let’s innovate, collaborate, and lead the way in shaping the responsible use of artificial intelligence. We look forward to seeing you at IIM Lucknow.
