Research at the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (IIMB) covers all the functional areas of management. Faculty members at IIMB are involved in both theoretical and applied research, aimed at developing conceptual models, as well as in empirical studies, resulting in several new hypotheses on industry-specific issues. This report provides details of research activities and publications of faculty members at IIMB during the period April 2009 through March 2010. I am pleased to state that the research output, including publications in academic journals, books, book chapters, case studies and editorial columns in newspapers by IIMB faculty members, has significantly increased compared to the previous year. In the period under review, IIMB faculty members have published 14 books and 52 articles in academic journals. IIMB faculty members initiated several research projects funded by both private and public sector companies. IIMB signed a memorandum of understanding with the Richard Ivey School of business, University of Western Ontario, Canada for writing co-branded cases that will be published by Ivey Publishing. We expect the number of cases written by IIMB faculty to increase significantly in the coming years. The research ambience at IIMB is enriched by seminars at which researchers from various academic institutes and research organizations share their research work. More than 40 researchers from across the globe visited IIMB and delivered research seminars that are conducted every week. Several conferences and open houses were conducted at IIMB to discuss many contemporary research themes at IIMB. Most research publications listed in this report are in the public domain. Please contact individual authors for further details or for copies of the papers if they are not easily accessible. Â U Dinesh Kumar Chairperson Research and Publications Committee
