GSIA awards

Filed under: Uncategorized

One of my unfufilled MBA dreams was to have a sponsored trip to some place in Europe for some B-school competition. I came quite close in the AT Kearney challenge, but that was about it. I confess I envied the MBAs in my batch who did. Some were really lucky to have their interviews scheduled in foreign countries. Some one in my batch had an interview with Qatar Airways at Doha & was flown in from the UK in business class. Quite a few ppl had interviews with Nike at Amsterdam. There were a couple of MBAs who had their interview in HongKong for Prudential. Perhaps, the more well-earned trips were the trip to the US that the AT Kearney team had.

Better late than never, I have been shortlisted as one of three finalists in a European paper writing competition on Global Sourcing and Innovation (www.gsiawards.com). The event will be held at Netherlands in the first week of December. On day 1, I will be presenting & defending my paper in front of the jury. Day 2 is marked as the "Global Sourcing & Innovation" event. There will be ministers from India
and Middle Eastern countries, as well as prominent figures from the corporate world. I understand that the CEO of Philips will also be speaking at the event. This is also the day when the prize winner for GSIA will be announced.

Ecstatic & really looking forward to this event.
