SP Jain School of Global Management’s Executive MBA (EMBA) students from Dubai and the Middle East got an exciting opportunity to meet SP Jain’s EMBA alumni from different cohorts and gain expert insights on entrepreneurship and small businesses. The event was organised online on February 27, 2021, by the SP Jain alumni team and the EMBA team.
The interaction was led by Suresh Lalwani (Senior business banker/Business mentor; EMBA Batch 1), Dr Ankur Dana (CEO, DANA Group of Companies; EMBA Batch 11) and Zuzer Kapasi (Managing Director, SFS Enterprise LLC; Co-Founder/Partner, Kapasi Equipments LLC; EMBA Batch 16). They shared their experiences, successes, failures and how the SP Jain EMBA had helped them build an entrepreneurial mindset and start their ventures. The session concluded with a live Q&A moderated by Parmita Debnath (Head – Academic Services and Professional Development – EMBA, SP Jain).
Students and alumni share their experience:
“The feeling of returning to college was great, and I enjoyed interacting with the EMBA students. Entrepreneurship is a practical and hands-on subject. The session gave an opportunity to learn from real-life business stories and each other’s experience, which was fantastic. It was impressive to see the enthusiasm of students and the quality of their questions. Given their diverse backgrounds and experience, I am sure many of them will become successful entrepreneurs after completing their EMBA program. I wish them luck for all their entrepreneurial ventures.”
