Ahvan'12 - Chanakya :
Event is inspired in its conception by the revered epitome of intellect – Chanakya. As the chief advisor to Chandragupta, he masterminded the Mauryan dynasty ascent to power. As an academician, he wrote treaties on economics and political science that find application even today. Chanakya was widely acclaimed for his intellectual acumen, tactical nous, and mastery over strategy- the three qualities that this event stands for.

Chanakya, Ahvan Strategy Consulting event, requires its participants to don the role of consultants to tackle business problems. Throughout the course of the event, participants apply their skills of diagnosis, analytical thinking and problem solving as they work on real life challenges confounding business firms. They are at their persuasive best, defending their recommendations in front of an eminent panel drawn from the industry and academia in their bid to emerge as the modern day chanakyas.

IIM Indore :
Established in 1996, Indian Institute of Management Indore is the sixth in the prestigious IIM family of management schools. The institute was chosen to be set up in Indore to give an impetus to management education in central India. Situated atop a scenic hillock, the beautiful 193 acre campus provides an ideal backdrop for some of the brightest minds in the country to work their best to become the best they can be.

The essence of management, IIM-I believes, lies in managing one’s own ambitions and forging ahead consciously. “A strong theoretical foundation is the basis of good corporate practice” this, coupled with grounding in management as it is practiced, is the underlying theme of the institute. Experiential learning, IT orientation, and social sensitivity are some of the unique features of the programme.
