In lieu of the growing importance of Indian MBA education on the global
stage, the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) has invited Dr Bibek Banerjee, Director IMT Ghaziabad, to serve on its Asia-Pacific Advisory Council (APAC).
To

Accepting this prestigious invitation, Dr. Bibek Banerjee, Director IMT Ghaziabad and Academic Mentor of IMT Group, extended
his gratitude to AACSB. He said, “It is an honor when one gets a chance

no profession nobler than that of an educationist who moulds young
minds. I look forward to this stint at APAC and I am grateful to them
for giving me this opportunity.”
