Union minister of tribal affairs, Arjun Munda, the chief guest for the programme, congratulated the “business leaders of tomorrow” and asked them to use their zeal to empower innovative ideas for a social cause.

Director of IIM Ranchi, Shailendra Singh, in his report, informed about how the institution has signed memorandums of understanding (MoUs) with AIIMS Deoghar and Entrepreneurship Development Institute of India (EDII) Ahmedabad.

The director advised students to shift focus from profitability to sustainability of enterprises, work for harmonious coexistence of the organisation, society, and environment and imbibe behaviour that reflects the core values of IIM Ranchi – humility, honesty, and hard work.

“The institute didn’t have its campus a few years ago. It had minimum facilities and was running classes from Suchana Bhawan, while students were residing at Khelgoan. With the support of the governing body, we are set to complete the construction of a new campus for the institute. NIRF ranking of the institute has improved and I am sure that next year we would be in the top 10 institutes,” said chairman, board of governors of the institution, Praveen Shankar Pandya.
