2nd National RURAL MANAGEMENT Konclave
2021-01-16 | Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology, KIIT University, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, 751024, India
“The soul of India lives in its villages” (- Gandhiji). About two-third of Indian population live in rural areas. Over the years, different development policies and programmes through various development agencies have brought a significant change in the life and the livelihoods in rural India. There has been an improvement in access to credit and many other financial services especially in rural areas. However, the rural-urban divide in socio-economic conditions of people has been increasingly noticed. Interventions in rural contexts are still lacking innovation and collaboration. Adaptation of technology, improvement of skill matching to the need of the emerging market and cost-effectiveness in managing credit are continued to be the gray areas in rural areas. Moreover, COVID 19 has shaken the economy severely. The rural unorganized sector including the producers, the consumers and the returned migrants still find difficulty in its rejuvenation. In this juncture, discourse on the two important rural sub-sectors such as rural finance and rural livelihoods is felt to be very crucial.

The overall objective of the conclave is to bring the development/business practitioners, the academicians and the students to a common platform and discourse on various challenges and way forward with special reference to rural finance and sustainable livelihoods.

BREAKING THE FOURTH WALL: INDIAN CINEMA IN PROJECTING WOMEN EMANCIPATION
LECTURE I: “GENDER BENDER LATE BOLLYWOOD“ DR. AMIT RANJAN
ASSISTANT PROFESSOR, NCERT
Dr Amit Ranjan is a poet and writer. He’s been a recipient of Fulbright, Inlaks, and Endeavour Fellowships. His collection of poems ‘Find Me Leonard Cohen, I’m Almost Thirty (2018) received good reviews. His upcoming works are a biography of John Lang, another of Dara Shikoh, and a collection of essays. Currently he is an Assistant Professor of English at NCERT.
The pun in ‘late’ here should be obvious. ‘Late Bollywood’ like ‘late capitalism ’ is the scourge of the single screen– that’ s to demonstrate modernity ’ s home tricks. But let’s pick the other meaning where Bollywood, despite reveling in its newfound OTT mindless-abuse-and-sex genre, faces the threat of becoming ‘late’ in that it has fed generations of people with the (b)romance of patriarchy. Films like Thappad, Pink, Lipstick Under My Burkha, Saand Ki Aankh and more have stared back at the male gaze (of course problematically still theoretically) and have unleashed the possibility of throwing Amitabh Bachchan with Mard tattooed on his chest into the realm of improbable fantasy – that actually almost happens in “Mard ko Dard Nahi Hota” with a karate champion girl knocking all Mards out of the ring. Qissa, a Punjabi Canadian film (it’d be travesty to call it Bollywood by any stretch) is definitionally gender bender – it burns down patriarchy in its own haunt, and goes so far as to seek asexual agency for its protagonist.

2021-02-27 08:00 - 2021-02-28 17:00 | KIIT School of Management, KSOM Campus 7 KIIT University, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, 751024, India
Industry 4.0 brought in digitization which integrated technology into all the areas of business operations and impacted the deliverables to customers. This digital transformation permeated into all the business models with the key drivers comprising profitability, collaboration across departments and process optimization. Thus, such path-breaking transformations make flexibility an imperative in work and the workforce.
Businesses require strategic planning based on evidence/data which has become the mainstay of the digital world. This agile liquid enterprise evidenced in organizations today depend on leaders taking new directions and constantly experimenting with ideas and strategies to build viable business. Leaders of these enterprises are more likely to succeed than those who insist on holding steadfast to realities that succeeded in the past.
Flexible working conditions have undergone a paradigm change demanding trust in people’s competencies as well as in digital infrastructure. The present times mandate not only a prepared and an agile organizational design, but also a resilient workforce. Revolutionary changes in industrial structure and customer expectations have given rise to the need for equally pronounced changes in business strategies and operational models, to attain competitive edge. Every functioning entity has come to realize that speed to adapt matters.
With the onset of the COVID19 pandemic, organizations have been coerced to envisage newer, leaner and sustainable methods of conducting their business. Future has arrived faster than anticipated as most companies have shifted to remote working style and most activities are being carried out on digital platforms.
Taking this as the trigger, the proposed International Management Conference, wishes to focus on the issues and lessons learnt during pandemic hardship, and the research thinking/ opportunities aimed at post-COVID era.

12th National Marketing Konclave on Human Face of Marketing in the Data Driven Era
2021-08-21 | KIIT School of Management, KSOM Campus 7 KIIT University, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, 751024, India
EVENT INTRODUCTION 12th National Marketing Konclave on Human Face of Marketing in the Data Driven Era

“A clear purpose is everything to an organization. It is an organization’s soul and identity, providing both a platform to build upon and a mirror to reflect its existence in the world. It articulates why an organization exists, what problems it is here to solve, and who it wants to be to each human it touches through its work. While it’s not the first time in history businesses are pondering why they exist and who they are to their customers.

Deloitte Consulting LLP, 2021, Global Marketing Trends.
This present era is an era of bountiful data churned into information through analytics and whipped-out insight. Marketers need to soul-search whether these so-called marketing insights are befitting to the core value of marketing function as organizations are not exclusively created for its customer but with a broader purpose to serve mankind. As in most cases marketing research mines consumer data so the possibility of not looking at non-user data is very high. Invariably with this short-sightedness we lose the focus on human beings. Further, marketers tend to forget the human side of the consumers in this touchless product and service delivery phase due to the pandemic control protocol. Bur marketers need to adopt this new reality and behave like a marketing-oriented organization full of human-like qualities. Business organizations must promote human-centric marketing approaches which treat consumers as real human beings, not a reference number or consumer ID.
The concept of human-centric marketing which gained momentum during the global pandemic and restriction on human contact is a natural outgrowth of customer-centric marketing and product-centric marketing with the evolution of marketing from sales since the decade 1980 onwards. In human-centric marketing, marketers approach customers as complete human beings with minds, hearts, and spirits. In human-centric marketing, marketers fulfill not only customers’ functional and emotional needs but also address their latent anxieties and desires. In this era of artificial intelligence and robotics, sometimes consumers are feared to lose their own identity. This deepest uncovered anxieties of consumers may be tapped well by adopting well-defined human-centric approaches touching their body, mind, and soul with well-articulated value propositions by human-to-human connection, not a machine to human artificial interaction.

12th National Finance Konclave on Resilience in Economic & Financial Systems: Lessons from Disruptive Changes
2021-11-20 | KIIT School of Management, KSOM Campus 7 KIIT University, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, 751024, India
EVENT INTRODUCTION The financial-system is the epicenter of all economic recessions in the past fifty years. However, the current recession is different from all other. It was caused by a global pandemic and subsequent response from the governments and society. This has resulted the supply and demand shocks and contraction of economic activities. The national and international financial systems felt the effect of the crisis in a massive way. The governments and policy makers across the globe struggled to limit the fall-out from the pandemic through numerous fiscal and monetary policy measures. The loan default and increased risk-weighted assets depleted many banks’ capital. However, the public-health responses and mitigating interventions reduced the extent of impact on the financial system. The Indian financial system is surprisingly resilient in the face of the pandemic contrary to the forecasted gloomy pictures. This may be because of quick recovery of business activities and well capitalized banks & financial institutions. The GDP growth of India was shrank by 7.3 percent in FY 2020-21 and expected to be recovering fast during FY 2021-22 to achieve 9-10 percent growth figures.
The pandemic is a learning experience and both devastating and empowering. It is devastating because it exposed the imperfection in the system; and empowering because it motivated people to innovate and move forward. All economies including India realized both the aspects and imbibed in designing policy measures. The imperative fiscal and monetary measures and intensified vaccination programmes have projected the global economy to grow at 4.7 percent in 2021 after a contraction of 4.3 percent in 2020. In India, the extraordinary responses from the government and central bank have revitalized the economy and financial system from the distressing impact of the pandemic. Every difficulty opens opportunities; operational flexibility, maintaining trust, digital initiative and enterprising are the new normal that the disruption taught us. Under this background, the 12th finance conclave endeavors to deliberate the Indian financial system buoyancy in the outbreak of pandemic and way forward.
Theme: Resilience in Economic & Financial Systems: Lessons from Disruptive Changes
The conclave will have a formal inauguration followed by discussions in two subsequent tracks. Interactive student workshops would be conducted in the second half of the day. Undergraduate and Post Graduate student contests shall be run before the conclaves.

EVENT INTRODUCTION Global supply chains are undergoing major transformations due to external pressure and technological trends including internal evolution. Companies are being pushed to re-evaluate existing networks in order to determine how their future supply chain will be formed in terms of capacity and responsibility. The repurposed and reshaped supply chains of the future will be characterized by both resilience and responsibility, which can help communities manage the short-term crisis as well as enable businesses to build around their customers and help economies rebound. The fast pace of supply chain evolution is mainly attributed to the rapid technological advancements. To retain the integrity of one’s supply chain and ascertain that organization prospers; supply chain managers and company leaders need to be on top of these developments. Rather, company should aim to anticipate the recent trends that will shape supply chain management in the future. These trends in supply chain and logistics are centred on the smart, digital technology-driven solutions primarily aim to reduce the operating costs and increasing the overall efficiency. The digitsation of supply chain enables companies to address new requirements of logistics and customer fulfillment (i.e. bundling and omnichannel distribution) including challenges on the supply-side, i.e. procurement and sourcing. Thus, digital supply chain, i.e. Supply Chain – 4.0 are much faster, accurate, flexible and efficient. This has also ushered requirements of new recruits as new jobs are constantly being created.
The present conclave has been designed to focus deliberations in all these above disruptions in supply chain and its effective management.

International Conference on Promoting Environmental Technologies for Waste Management and Sustainable Development (WMSD-2021)

Date : 12th-13th December, 2021
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

Environmental and economic implications have compelled proper eco-friendly disposal of modern day wastes and also made it essential to come up with alternative waste management practices that reduce the environmental burden resulting from unwise waste disposal habits. Increasingly vigilant environmental regulators are imposing austere regulations for waste treatment prior to discharge coupled with escalation in the costs for direct disposal present two interrelated problems such as traditional practice of disposing waste loaded with pollutants need to be either discontinued or upgraded and incremental improvement in the waste management technologies, which has always been a game of playing catch-up with the regulations, have inflated infrastructure requirement and treatment cost significantly. Therefore, rather than continuing slow evolution, adaptation of a leapfrogging strategy could be more effective. Although a great deal of research in carried out in various academic and research institutions, their practical applications is rather slow. Additionally, proliferating global population coupled with high demand of commodities are depleting the natural resources in an alarming rate. Therefore, there is an urgent need not only to develop suitable waste disposal strategy but also to augment the waste recycling technologies for resource recovery in a circular economy model. International Conference on Promoting Environmental Technologies for Waste Management and Sustainable Development (WMSD-2021) aims to bring together leading academicians, scientists, researchers, industry experts and policy makers to exchange and share their experiences and on various aspects of Waste Management and Sustainable Development. It also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of waste management and resource recycling. Selected papers presented in the conference will be published in journals published by NESA or other suitable publishing houses. The conference will feature renowned speakers representing both academia and industry who are renowned experts in various thematic areas. Conference will include a start-up track session, providing opportunity to innovators to showcase new technologies.

2nd International Conference on Sustainability and Equity (ICSE-2021)
2021-12-17 - 2021-12-18 | KIIT Deemed to be University, KIIT, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, 751024, India
EVENT INTRODUCTION 2nd International Conference on Sustainability and Equity (ICSE-2021) which will be held at KIIT Deemed to be University ,Bhubaneswar, Odisha India , from 17th- 18th December , 2021, jointly organised by World Leadership Academy and Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT) Deemed to be University.
In contemporary modern world, sustainability is a major concern for human being. Both history and literature indicate that human being has been doing activities those challenge its own existence survival, and sustainability. Challenges such as climate change, global warming, resource scarcity, increasing inequity, social cleavages, decreasing biodiversity and an ever increasing resource-rich lifestyle (Lorek & Fuchs, 2011) have been challenging the human civilization’s sustainability. Sustainability can be explained as how natural systems function, and produce everything that meet the needs of the current generation users without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs, while keeping the system remain in balance. Sustainability takes into account how we need to live in synchronization with the natural world around us. In the contemporary world, humanity uses about 40% more resources than nature can regenerate in a year (Global Footprint Network, 2010). At some day, the human civilization might be without its essential resources to survive and continue. These resources need to be optimally used and regenerated at the same rate as the rate of consumption or exhaustion. Not only the use of resources, but also every activity, practice, technology, and infrastructure has to be sustainable. Sustainability relates to equity. We can not have one without the other. Equity is about fairness among all. Inter generational equity i.e. a reasonable balance between satisfying our needs now and keeping and saving enough to provide for needs of the future generations is critical for sustainability. Furthermore, for sustainability, equity across forms of life such as humans and non-humans is as essential as equity across generations of human life.
In contemporary modern world, with globalization, digitalization, advances in information, technology and communication, the whole world is moving towards becoming a global society. In such context, increasing inequity, social cleavages, increasing intolerance, poor resilience, increasing nationalism, eccentric governance have been challenging the sustainability of a global society. This conference aims to discuss the sustainability of human civilization with a focus on democracy, citizenship behaviour, and global society, its challenges, issues and possible way outs.
