FIIB’s 6th International Management Conference (IMC) is one of the most awaited events for all the esteemed members of researchers and practitioner’s community. This event aims in achieving and delivering beneficial impacts and outcomes both for the organizers and the host community, in addition to other stakeholders such as participants, spectators, sponsors and the media. The previous 5 events were highly successful and delivered the objective of bringing together scholars, researchers, industry experts and very talented students to enlighten them with the ever-burning torch of knowledge. Last year event’s theme being Advances in Management through Research, Innovation & Technology’ (AMRIT), it evoked feelings of peace, harmony, higher order thinking and a state of bliss for all.
At FIIB, our focus is to adapt to the new normal and encourage the launch of AMRIT in a virtual mode where all, irrespective of location will come together to have a complete zone of knowledge sharing, sustainable learning and an ever-lasting relationship building. We stand together in such trivial times and endeavor to increase the tenacity of learning across the participants and imbibe ourselves to this agile environment. Unlike mass gatherings, IMC will take place in controlled environment. We plan to architect an experience in a space that is virtual, adheres to guidelines for social distancing, and creates a meaningful and memorable experience for all who attend.
