Theme: "Sustainable Development: Fuelling the Future"
On January 16-18, 2009

IIM Lucknow, after the tremendous success of Manfest 2008, has now launched Manfest 2009. IIM Lucknow Manfest 2009 is being held from January 16-18, 2009 at the IIM Lucknow Campus. This edition of Manfest is built around "Sustainable
Development: Fuelling the Future"
, a theme that finds much of its relevance in today’s world wherein there is a heightened awareness of bolstering current growth while reinforcing future prospects.

Manfest 2009 is divided into four verticals. CSR Initiative, Leader’s Express, Business Events at Manfest 2009 and Beyond Business.

CSR Initiative

Corporate Social Responsibility is rarely a topic of discussion in any B-school. But the corporate world at large is looking at initiatives which would ensure sustainable development and fuel the future growth. As a premier B-school which will churn out future leaders and managers, IIM Lucknow understands its responsibility of educating its students about an ideology that aims at empowering people and looking at initiatives that go beyond just profits.

The Manfest CSR vision is to create a forum and platform that promotes holistic CSR by involving responsible CSR practitioners from India and abroad to discuss contemporary issues in CSR. The CSR initiative includes: -

  • Affirmation: The Social Conclave - It aims to engage an elite panel of members in an engaging discussion on CSR and its importance in the current world. Dr. J. J. Irani, Director, Tata Sons will be one of the eminent speaker.

The awards aim to felicitate anyone who brought about a transformational social change, be it Profit Entities, Hybrid Social Ventures, Non-Profit Organizations, Socially-inclined Engineers or Individuals.

  • C Trader - Carbon Trading is the buzzword among the corporate today. Manfest, as part of its events schedule, will organize the event C Trader which simulates a scenario wherein teams choose different industries with different carbon credit ratings. Participant teams will endeavor to build profitable plans from among the multiple choices of projects offered so as to obtain a mix of carbon credits and monetary profits.
