The Indian School of Business evolved from the need for a world class business school in Asia. Our founders- some of the best minds from the corporate and academic worlds- visualised the leadership needs of emerging Asian economies. They recognised that the rapidly changing business landscape would require young leaders with an understanding of evolving economies, but also with a global perspective. The ISB is committed to its role in creating such leaders through its innovative programmes, outstanding faculty and thought leadership.

Our Vision
Our vision is to be an internationally top-ranked research-driven, independent management institution that grooms future leaders for India and the world. Funded entirely by private corporations, foundations and individuals from around the world, who believe in its vision, the ISB was conceived as a not for profit organisation.

With increased globalisation, the ISB sees three important trends which will influence its direction for research and education in the coming years:
•    Requirement for global competencies in this part of the world
•    Globalisation of Indian corporations
•    Increasing interest in management best practices in emerging markets, including India
With a diverse mix of students from different industries, experiential and holistic learning, international faculty and students, and strong corporate involvement, life at the ISB is a unique experience for students, executives, faculty, staff and their families. And life after the ISB is never the same, a fact our alumni will vouch for.
