Anusmaran 2015, the flagship alumni event of Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (IIMB), witnessed the institute’s alumni from across the batches coming together.

Pranav Garg, Assistant Professor, Corporate Strategy and Policy, Class of 2002, Faculty Fellow, kickstarted the programme, throwing light on the importance of the alumni body in the lives of the IIMB students.

Harish Mittal, President of the IIMB Alumni Association Bangalore, highlighted the upcoming Alumni Conclave, IIMBUE.

The event saw distinguished panellists sharing stories of their entrepreneurial journey.

Punch Tantra, a radical mime theatre group, performed spoofs of various well-known advertisements, which had the audience in splits.

Arunachalam Muruganantham, CEO, Jayaashree Industries, the man who started the silent ‘Pink Revolution’ was the keynote speaker of the event. Muruganatham created the world’s first low-cost machine to produce sanitary napkins at a time when 88 per cent of Indian women were compelled to use ash, newspapers, dry leaves, sawdust, and the sort.

Being a social entrepreneur, he said, “Don’t look for an opportunity, look for a problem and then be a solution provider.”
