SPJIMR in close association with the National Entrepreneurship Network (NEN) organized Lock Stock Trade (LST) on 19th January, 2008. LST aims to provide students with guidance from entrepreneurs and venture capitalists on how to anticipate business risks and work within limited resources. LST is a unique event due to a trinity of factors - The Mock IPO simulation concept, the real life investable businesses and the Business Analysts from the MBA program.LST 2008 attracted global participation from reputed international Business Schools like Thammasat University, Thailand and S.P. Jain Centre of Management, Dubai. The keynote speaker was Captain G.R. Gopinath, Executive Chairman, Deccan Aviation. The business ideas presented at LST have always carried a social touch to them. The relevance of this sensitivity was seconded by Capt. Gopinath himself. “Businesses in India today have to obviously be profitable and scalable. But additionally they must also be inclusive – both demographically and geographically. This is why I did not build just a “Bombay-Delhi” airline. India lives in its small towns and villages.”
The event is a step forward in building responsible leaders and visionaries to change the development landscape of India through entrepreneurial ventures.
