AmCon’09 Pioneers a Great Conclave of the Asian Renaissance
The aura and luster of leading industrialized nations from the erstwhile capitalist block, the traditional locus of power and the ascertained factors for balancing the economy, all have been drastically hit by the radical upsurge of new economic superpowers as the focus has shifted on Asia; said H. E. Shri Murlidhar Chandrakant Bhandare, the Hon’ble Governor of Orissa. Inaugurating the Asian Management Congress (AmCon’09) organized by ace B-School ASBM on the theme “Storming the Global Business: The Rise of Asian Tigers” the Governor hinted upon the facts that Western demand mechanism will no longer serve as the primary engine of growth. Instead, Asian business frontiers will abandon their export-oriented economic models and adopt accelerated domestic consumption to generate growth. The Governor lauded ASBM for organizing such an important event that will spearhead healthy exchange of managerial perspectives and development dialogues between South Asian Nations. Addressing the Congress, the Vice President of Association of Management Development Institutes-South Asia (AMDISA) & the Executive Director of Nepal Administrative Staff Training College, Shri Dinesh Prasad Pant said that the present international conference has undoubtedly been a forum of business leaders and managers, academicians, researchers and consultants for deliberating and analyzing the trends in the Asian economies and observing the rise of the Asian tigers with their roles and possible impact in the global economy. Giving a prelude to the theme, the Group Director of ASBM and Chairman of AmCon’09, Prof. Biswajeet Pattanayak highlighted ASBM’s lead role in holding the first ever Asian Management Congress to propagate the Asian perspectives of Business growth and perpetuate the oriental interpretation to corporate ethics. He said it is heartening that this conclave of ideas will further strengthen the industry-academia-civil society partnership promoted for a glorious Asia and a liberated world.
