The summit will focus on the trends that will be instrumental in shaping the future of countries and their economic environments in the years to come, said a statement from the business school.
“The world has been witnessing radical changes across every domain; these trends have been both exciting and intimidating.
“In India, there have been innumerable champions of change, who have pushed boundaries and been at the forefront of creating new contexts and practices, thereby shaping the future of the country in diverse aspects,” it added.
The centrepiece of the ISB Leadership Summit this year is the Emerging Leaders’ Forum, a first-of-its-kind thought leadership debate that will bring together 32 of the brightest minds and orators from 16 of the leading business schools in India.
