It gives us great pleasure to
announce the 1st Annual India Business Conference at Ross. The interest
and enthusiasm of our faculty as well as the hundreds of students from
all nationalities towards India and its explosive growth has been the
inspiration for this conference. The conference will be held on
October 9th and 10th, 2009 at the Stephen M. Ross School of Business in
Ann Arbor, Michigan.
This year's conference theme, "One Billion and Counting,"
will focus on the emerging opportunities and existing challenges for
corporations doing business in India. With a projected growth of
8% for 2010, the world is in awe as India propels ahead to regain its
rightful place among the economic superpowers of the world.
We invite you to
join us as we explore this theme with thought-provoking discussions
involving academicians, business leaders and policy gurus. Please visit
the India Business
Conference website to register or for more information. |
