Cambridge MBAs enrol at ISB for One semester

This is the inaugural exchange in a three-year international student exchange programme agreed between Judge Business School and the Indian School of Business at the close of last year. Throughout the course of the programme selected students from the Indian School of Business will also enrol on the Cambridge MBA course for similar periods of time, with the first group due to attend Judge Business School in early 2008. While visiting their host schools, the students will attend lectures and undertake consulting projects, two of which will be with Microsoft Research on “emerging” technologies in order to familiarise themselves with technology entrepreneurship.

Commenting on the programme, Dr Shai Vyakarnam, Director of the Centre for Entrepreneurial Learning, Judge Business School said: “The design of the programme and of these projects will enable the students to learn about global issues in fast growing technology environments, equipping them with the insight and practical skills necessary to develop them into managers for the future, capable of commercialising disruptive technologies in global contexts.”

Cambridge MBAs James Sanders and Dan Sorensen who are going to Microsoft Research in Bangalore as part of this exchange said: “India is a rapidly developing economy and is fast becoming a recognised source for innovation. This exchange programme offers us a fantastic opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of how leading edge innovation in India is being positioned to meet global needs. It will also give us an invaluable insight into India, its culture and business approaches as well as the chance to network with some of India’s future business leaders.”
