IIM Raipur Encyclopedia of Indian Business Leaders (EIBL) Project: Honouring Legacy, Shaping Future
The Encyclopedia of Indian Business Leaders (EIBL) at IIM Raipur is an ambitious initiative dedicated to preserving the rich legacies of Indian leadership and management practices. Recognizing the lack of a comprehensive resource on Indian business leadership, EIBL aims to document the inspiring journeys of prominent leaders, spanning from the pre-independence era to today’s dynamic startup landscape. This endeavor not only preserves invaluable wisdom and innovative practices but also enhances capabilities both domestically and internationally.
EIBL celebrates the spirit and acumen that drive India’s economy, inspiring future entrepreneurs and promoting sustainable business solutions aligned with the nation’s socio-economic priorities. It is poised to become an indispensable resource for academia, organizations, and society, deepening the understanding of Indian business practices and thought leadership.
EIBL compiles a diverse archive of digital and print materials, including video interviews, documentaries, and academic case studies, all curated to highlight the contributions of Indian entrepreneurs to business and societal prosperity.
