Details:
The word Backwaters no longer evokes images of serene lagoons and sleepy
houseboats. What comes to mind instead is a throng of humanity battling
it out to emerge supreme. Backwaters is the Annual B-School Meet of the
Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode (IIMK). Backwaters v2.10 was a
roaring success with more than 3000 students from across 70 premier
B-Schools of India participating in events spanning all management
verticals. The star attractions included White Knight, Avatar, Labyrinth
and Bizzathalon among other events.
In addition to the flagship events, the business simulation games, case
studies, strategy events, etc. across the 6 verticals (Finance,
Marketing, Systems, Strategy, Operations & Human Resources) gave an
opportunity to students from the best B-schools to apply their classroom
concepts to the real world. Young Guns in association with Blackberrys
was broadcast by NDTV Profit as events under the marketing vertical came
under national spotlight.
Backwaters has grown over the past years & now resounds as a
familiar name across B-schools as well as the industry. This year
Backwaters will throw down the gauntlet to the next-gen MBAs with newer
and smarter events. The speaker series will see brilliant minds from
India Inc. enlightening the IIMK fraternity with their insights on
contemporary issues. Keeping up with our legacy we aim to make
Backwaters '11 a class apart.
