VESIM has a mission to “Develop faculty capable of synthesizing, communicating and creating knowledge in collaboration with industry, peers, alumni and students”. With this in mind, we have introduced a series of face to face dialogue with industry personnel. It offers faculties an opportunity to look beyond academics and know about the happenings in the industry. The series of events is titled 'Koffee with Korporate' and it is conducted in a Talk Show format. This event connects faculties of VESIM with industry.
The event involves inviting a senior executive (CXO, Vice President, General Manager or equivalent) from the corporate and letting the faculties understand the business from the insider perspective. The format is semi-casual, where the host asks questions about the business, its competitors, customers etc. The guest also talks about his/her career journey.
The idea behind this is to expose faculties to emerging trends in business so that they can transfer the real world knowledge to the students to the class. In the end, faculties interact with the guest to take the relationship further by exploring areas of common interest like student internships, placements MDP and consultancy.
Kofeee with Korporate was done with Shri Harini Sreenivasan. A visionary and an eternal optimist with a passion to motivate and help people bring out the entrepreneurial accountability in them. Transforming individuals by inculcating the ‘spirit of ownership’ from being just an 'employee'.
