Speaking about the different MBA programs, Dr. Ramesh Bhat, Vice Chancellor, SVKM’s NMIMS said, “Family-owned businesses are a critical part of our economy. From large corporations to small-scale industries, these businesses are responsible for employing millions across the country. With many of these businesses still run in the traditional manner, there is an urgent need to help them transition to more modern management thought, and business practices which are more effective. At NMIMS Pravin Dalal School of Entrepreneurship & Family Business Management, we have been working with such businesses, in transitioning into more contemporary, professional, and forward-thinking organizations. Our aim is to groom entrepreneurs, business successors, and managers into global leaders of tomorrow. ”
Prof. Seema Mahajan, Director, Pravin Dalal School of Entrepreneurship & Family Business Management, Mumbai, explained why NMIMS’ Family Business Programs are distinct and unique. She said, “The NMIMS family business and entrepreneurship programs stand out because of our understanding of the unique needs of family-owned businesses. Our extensive student exchange programs and International linkages with over 30 institutions help our students gain a valuable multicultural perspective. Apart from a carefully designed curriculum, our programs are tailored to meet the various requirements of working executives and future business successors. While the integrated MBA (Entrepreneurship & Family Business) is best suited for students just out of school, the weekend MBA Family Managed Business is customized for a busy executive.”
