Dear AIB Members,
FIU CIBER is pleased to announce the 4th Annual PDIB India Program designed specifically for faculty and professionals interested in learning about the Indian business environment. We are currently accepting applications for faculty and professionals interested in participating in this exciting program, taking place January 3 – 10, 2012 in Bangalore and Mumbai, India.
Participants will visit multi-national companies such as, Siemens, Infosys, Welspun Ltd., Caterpillar, and GlaxoSmithKline, interact with top executives and discuss how these leading companies are riding the downfall, while simultaneously reshaping the Indian business environment resulting in a more competitive India.
To understand India’s complex social structure, the group will visit Dharavi, Asia’s largest slum and witness how the Dabbawala, the internationally recognized lunch distribution system, functions. Cultural visits will also be organized to historical places such as the Bull Temple, the botanical gardens of Lal Bagh, and Elephanta Caves.
The program fee is $3,000 USD per participant and includes hotel accommodations with breakfast (single occupancy), domestic flight between Bangalore & Mumbai, all ground transportation, entry to cultural locations, and some meals. This fee does not include international airfare. Participants may be accompanied by spouses for an additional $600 USD, which includes all cultural visits and some meals. For a reduced program fee, please inquire about the double occupancy rate.
