The BPIM - Switzerland (Business Planning for International Markets) course is an Elective for PGP
BPIM - In 2014, IIMB launched a 3-credit course titled Business Planning for International Markets (BPIM) to strengthen internationalization of research and teaching programs. In addition to creating international exposure for students, the initiative helps faculty further their geography-specific research as they interact with local universities, organizations, and research centres.
The course involves around 8-10 days of immersion (of which 5 days are business meetings/visits and remaining for understanding the country with respect to its culture, context, and business opportunities). A few sessions are conducted at IIMB before and after the travel.
This year, Professor Deepti Ganapathy and Professor Rusha Das have designed the BPIM to Switzerland.
