New Delhi [India], May 8: The Indian Institute of Management Kashipur, in collaboration with Brunel University London, is set to host the International Conference on “Sustainable Management Strategies for India’s Future” from 9th to 11th May 2025. Aligned with the national vision of Viksit Bharat 2047, this prestigious event aims to bring together leading academicians, industry experts, and researchers to explore sustainable pathways for India’s future growth. The conference will place special emphasis on integrating traditional Indian knowledge systems with contemporary business practices to foster inclusive, resilient, and innovation-driven development.
The three-day conference aims to provide a dynamic platform for thought leaders to deliberate on India’s evolving economic landscape and its aspiration to sustain high growth while addressing global challenges such as climate change and responsible resource management. As India rises as the fifth-largest economy in the world, the event will focus on balancing rapid development with sustainability, resilience, and inclusive progress.
The conference will feature four thematic tracks addressing key dimensions of sustainable management. The first track, Indian Knowledge Systems and Values, will explore how ancient Indian philosophies–such as Yoga, Ayurveda, indigenous leadership values, and spiritual wisdom–can inform modern organizational strategies and promote holistic well-being. The second track, Sustainability in Business, will focus on practices that minimize environmental impact and foster long-term economic and social responsibility, including sustainable finance, circular economy, green innovation, and frugal consumption. The third track, Marketing Management, will examine evolving strategies in cultural, wellness, and medical tourism, alongside rural marketing, brand equity, and changing consumer behavior. The final track, Performance Management, will address ways to measure and enhance productivity across sectors like healthcare, agriculture, logistics, and banking, especially in light of digital transformation and the growing emphasis on sustainability metrics.
The event will feature distinguished speakers from around the globe, including Prof. Robin Jarvis (Brunel University London), adviser to the European Federation of Accountants and board member of the International Small Business Journal; Prof. Sanjeet Singh (IIM Lucknow), editorial board member of Management Decision; Shri C. M.
