The conclave series called 'Samavesh' is an annual event led by the PGPM students and hosted on the SPJIMR campus. Over the years, 'Samavesh' has grown to become a significant industry engagement platform that brings together industry and academia to help exchange ideas, share best practices and learn from each other.
'Samavesh' is a platform where practice meets theory. Business leaders bring in practical knowledge and academics comes in with theoretical frameworks, a confluence that can open new avenues of learning and growth.
The five conclaves planned this year are Consulting, Information Management, Finance, Marketing and the Operations & Supply Chain. Each conclave will discuss how digitalisation is making an impact on business today, how business models are changing and the likely way in which these changes will play out in the future.
The first day of 'Samavesh', May 18, will see the inaugural Consulting Conclave around the theme 'Consulting Opportunities in the Digital Era'. The Information Management Conclave will explore the various dimensions of the theme 'Digital Disruptions Leading to Innovation in Business Models'. The topic for the Finance Conclave, the last conclave on the first day, is 'Opportunities and Challenges in the Evolving Financial Landscape'.
May 19 will open with the Operations & Supply Chain conclave around the theme: 'Transforming the Supply Chain in Industry 4.0', also referred to as 'the fourth industrial revolution', which will discuss aspects of disruptive changes of digitalisation in the supply chain industry. The final conclave on Marketing with the theme 'Digital Marketing: Is it the End of Traditional way of Doing Business?' will delve in the different facets of digital technology revolutionising conventional marketing approaches.
