  Symbiosis Institute of Business Management (SIBM), Bengaluru is all set to host its Annual Management Conclave - ‘Alchemy 2017’ on 8 th & 9 th September, 2017. The Management Conclave provides a quality platform for highly esteemed speakers from various sectors of the industry to come together and give keynote addresses to management students by becoming a part of stimulating panel discussions. This year, the Conclave is structured around the theme ‘Vivartanam Bharate’ which means ‘Transforming India’.
India is presently undergoing change. Today, it is one of the fastest growing economies in the world.
But, will it be able to sustain its growth in this financially progressive and technologically driven
environment? With this uncertainty in our minds, we are making an attempt to question industry
experts about their views on the same. The theme aims to take forward the dialogue on how effective
the tools of transformation have been over the years and questions what the future holds for us.
Keynote Speakers:
1. Mr. Rajat Jain, Executive Vice-Chairman, Neva Garments Ltd., Non-Executive Director,
Xerox India
2. Mr. Sunder Madakshira, Head- Marketing, Adobe India Pvt. Ltd.
3. Mr. D.K. Hota, Chairman and Managing Director, Bharat Earth Movers Ltd.
4. Mr. Ram Manohar Reddy, Author and Former Editor, The Wire/EPW
Alchemy is structured around three panel discussions on some burning questions surrounding the
business world today.
Panel 1: Technological Singularity
Can machines think? What will be the impact of automation and artificial intelligence on the future of
our country? This panel discussion aims to throw light on how the industries are adopting automation
and machine learning to change the way they work and deliver superior value.
Panel 2: Bankable India?
Financial Inclusion will help in capitalizing on the demographic dividend and including businesses
previously unaccounted for. Or will it? This panel discussion is an attempt to understand how
financial inclusion will change the current business scenario in India. What should the businesses do
to remain relevant in the market?
Panel 3: GST - Good and Simple Tax?
It is said that GST is the single biggest reform in India since independence. But is it? 
This panel discussion topic is an attempt to understand the implications that GST will have on the
Indian economy and to analyse how it will complement other Indian Government policies that are
aimed at boosting the economy.
