ISB Ads on my Blog..
Recently updated my blog with Google's AdSense. Great to see ISB's ads on my blog........The first ad directed to www.Vault.com & the other ad directed to another blog -
www.eurekhaonline.blogspot.com .....
(I just put my mouse on the ad and the weblink is shown on the bottom bar)
I am aware of the content in www.Vault.com but I have no clue about the second site.
I didnot & do not want to click the Ads - as I am one of the true supporters of the 'anti click fraud' drives........
Hope every one follows this approach..........

Back from Chennai. Participated in Yale-Greatlakes International Conference on management. It was an amazing experience. Hospitality, speakers and the chief guest…all are amazing. Indra Nooyi was the chief guest for the session. I am the inaugural speaker in one of the two parallel sessions and my paper was appreciated very well.Lot of people asked me about the work and my research.
Lot of Telugu people are studying in Greatlakes. Nice to interact with them and I made lot of friends. Overall – experience is really fantastic.

This week is the final week of Term-6. Out of the four subjects, three are ‘take-home’ exams. But take home exams are really painful. They kill the entire time. Even my ELP presentation is scheduled in two days and I have to travel to Mumbai. Activities lined up for one kilometer. :)
ISB launched ‘ISB Radio’ for internal community. Very good initiative and lot of fun-filling.
Yr 2006 is closing its book. This year is a phenomenal year in my life…
Summary of this year in next post……..

Placement Fever
All of a sudden there is a paradigm shift in the focus of the students from ‘Grades’ to ‘Placements’. Term-6 is going at ‘early morning breeze’ experience – I mean no hiccups and mad rush submissions. I really enjoyed the Mergers & Acquisitions course. What a wonderful analysis of each acquisition??? This is one of the best courses that I had enjoyed at ISB.
Also, one interesting thing is that the entire ‘Finance’ gravity is centered in Terms five and six. I had Options & Futures, Fixed Income, Adv.Corp Finance in Term-5; Financial Engineering, M&A in Term-6 – heavily loaded with finance fundas.
How far I can apply in real corporate world – time will decide..
Term-7 bidding was also over and luck played a devil’s game. I bid for 5 courses and got 2. Two courses – Capital Raising Strategies & Negotiation analysis are in the waiting bin, which I am very much interested in.
One interesting update is – one of my seniors, whom I admire and respect the most, Vijay, is leaving his consulting profession and joining corporate bank. Though there could be many obvious reasons, I think it was a very tough decision. Kudos.. Vijay...
We have the alumni meet this weekend, Solistice i.e. on 24th. But I am not sure whether I will be in campus or not. My research paper got selected for presentation in Yale-Greatlakes International research conference, Chennai. Still thinking whether to go or stay back in Campus to attend the Alumni meet?

What's Happening at ISB?
Lot of things. Two days back Center for Analytical Finance conducted a “Capital Market Conference”, which was a huge success. Mr. Uday Kotak, MD of Kotak Mahindra Bank, was the key-note speaker. The panel discussions were awesome – moderated by Professors Sankar De (Advanced Corporate Finance) and Srinivas Kamma (M&A: Corporate Control) – Speakers are the Business heads from Goldman Sachs, Kotak, Morgan Stanley, IDBI, Ambit, Enam, Deutsche Bank. ..............Great perspective building exercise on Indian Capital Markets.

More details @ ILS Meet.
