<strong>IBS</strong> ALUMNI<br />
Alumni are the best brand<br />
ambassadors for any<br />
educational institution. One<br />
of the measures of success of<br />
an educational institution is<br />
the success of its alumni and<br />
<strong>IBS</strong> has one of the largest and<br />
strongest alumni networks.<br />
BRAND<br />
ambassadors<br />
At present <strong>IBS</strong> has over 49000 alumni spread across<br />
the world – a network that expands steadily with each<br />
graduating class. <strong>IBS</strong> alumni are leaders in a broad<br />
range of organizations including entrepreneurial<br />
companies, established firms, government and Nonprofit<br />
organizations. They serve in a wide spectrum<br />
of industries, including consulting, financial services,<br />
venture capital, technology, manufacturing, retail and<br />
consumer products. Their success in the corporate<br />
arena is an eloquent testimony to their skills, abilities<br />
and hard work, as well as to the quality and rigor of<br />
business education at <strong>IBS</strong>. The <strong>IBS</strong> Alumni Federation<br />
(<strong>IBS</strong>AF) aims to help the alumni stay in touch with<br />
their alma-mater and other <strong>IBS</strong>-ians wherever they<br />
are in the world.<br />
<strong>IBS</strong>AF is a non-profit society, established in 1997<br />
to provide an active institutional framework<br />
for professional development, interaction and<br />
networking for the <strong>IBS</strong> alumni. This is facilitated<br />
through various events and forums involving both<br />
the alumni and <strong>IBS</strong> students. It also assists alumni in<br />
lateral career movement and career development.<br />
Alumni actively participate in the developmental<br />
activities of <strong>IBS</strong> and are also inducted into the<br />
governance structures at various levels.<br />
<strong>IBS</strong>AF connects with its alumni through chapters at<br />
the local level and online through the website (www.<br />
ibsindia.org).<br />
<strong>IBS</strong>AF promotes lifelong bonding among the <strong>IBS</strong><br />
alumni and with them aims to take <strong>IBS</strong> amongst the<br />
best B-schools in the world.<br />

<strong>IBS</strong> Bangalore is one of the best institutes<br />
that ensures career growth. Two years at <strong>IBS</strong><br />
played a key role in my life as it prepared<br />
me for the corporate life. The dedication,<br />
commitment, support and encouragement<br />
provided by the faculty and the placement cell<br />
were remarkable and enabled me to achieve<br />
my dream. <strong>IBS</strong> imbibed in me the confidence,<br />
discipline and focus to excel in my chosen<br />
career path. Case studies, group activities,<br />
academic clubs, guest lectures and many<br />
more activities helped in grooming me to<br />
take up challenges in the corporate field. I will<br />
always be grateful to <strong>IBS</strong> for providing me a<br />
platform of practical learning and preparing<br />
me for the corporate life.<br />
