4th Indian Association The Subalterns in South Asia South Asian Studies (IASAS) International Conference
2024-06-21 - 2024-06-22 | Campus-6 Auditorium, KIIT, Bhubaneswar, 751024, India
ABOUT IASAS
The Indian Association for South Asian Studies (IASAS) is a scholarly and educational association open to all persons interested in South Asia and the study of South Asia. It is based in New Delhi, India. The Association organises Biennial Conference, regional conferences and other activities. It organizes conferences every year and three of its conferences have already been held in BHU Varanasi and Sri Lanka.
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE:
The term “subaltern,” popularized by Antonio Gramsci, conceptualized subaltern groups as those excluded from hegemonic power, encompassing peasants, workers, and other marginalized factions. However, in Subaltern Studies led by Ranajit Guha, initiated as a post-colonial theory in India, the term broadens to denote the quality of being subordinate in South Asian society, irrespective of its manifestation in class, caste, age, gender, or office. The collective, initially comprising scholars such as Shahid Amin, David Arnold, Partha Chatterjee, David Hardiman, and Gyanendra Pandey, aimed to give voice to the historically marginalized. Subaltern Studies encompassed diverse subjects, including history, politics, economics, and sociology of subalternity, along with associated perspectives, ideologies, and belief systems. The initiative aimed to counter elitist historiography by allowing subaltern voices to emerge within its pages, representin and amplifying the voices of the oppressed. The theory posited that the elite in India did not merely have a hegemonic role but played a dominant one, enabling the subaltern to be seen as independent historical actors. This perspective countered the notion that the subaltern were passive recipients of elite guidance, emphasizing their independent agency within the political system.
In line with the subaltern understanding, this conference extends a warm invitation to panels and paper submissions that specifically emphasize non-elite discourses. The conference aims to spotlight and explore narratives, perspectives, and voices that have traditionally been marginalized or overlooked in favour of dominant, elite perspectives. Connecting historical studies to disciplines like gender studies, cultural studies, sociology, economics, demographics, politics, psychology, and others are also welcome. By prioritizing non-elite discourses, we aspire to create a space for critical discussions and insights that challenge established norms and contribute to a richer understanding of the diverse, often unheard, voices in South Asian societies. The conference hopes to be able to encourage more research by generating new perspectives by exploring new as well as alternative and evolving research ideas and methods.
ABOUT THE HOST ORGANIZATION:
The institute’s solemn academic ambience has led to grant of A-Category status to it by the Ministry of HRD, Govt. of India, placing it among the most elite universities of the country. It is accredited by NAAC of UGC in ‘A Grade’. Further, it has received Tier 1 (Washington Accord) accreditation by NBA of AICTE for engineering streams.

15th National HR Konclave 2024

Building a sustainable inclusive future – the role of business: – Leveraging HR Technology for competitive advantage

In today’s dynamic work environment, HR’s focus has shifted towards fostering agility and adaptability rather than erecting barriers around employees. Increased uncertainties have propelled HR into strategic roles, necessitating heightened collaboration between business leaders and HR professionals to drive organizational change effectively. Business leaders now rely extensively on HR partners to design workflows seamlessly integrating technology to empower employees. This includes managing transitions induced by automation, enhancing digital literacy and upskilling to address talent shortages. Moreover, HR plays a crucial role in facilitating employee engagement amidst the shift to remote work and in nurturing a culture of continuous learning and relationship-building. In this context, the role of HR has never been more critical, serving as a linchpin in navigating the intricacies of the modern workplace landscape.

The future of HR has shifted our focus from simply acquiring talent to cultivating and nurturing the talent we already have, amidst the demographic tapestry of the workforce. It is HR’s role to strategize, to promote digital well-being and foster healthy frontiers between professional and personal lives in a world where constant digital overload has also led to burnout and unbalanced life harmony, creating a human cost of technology. Moreover, HR also has to address ethical concerns raised by the growing use of AI in the workplace, on employee privacy, thereby mandating the protection of employee data rights. The employer-employee relationship is being redefined with every change, with the all-pervasive theme being – trust. Non-traditional work arrangements need protections across workplaces. Individual priorities, especially mental well-being have taken center stage. Personalized work experiences are being delivered by the HR leaders, who are encouraging employees to provide feedback on landing self-driven well-being options. Leaders are not only working on the skills and competencies of their employees, but are also working more towards identifying their ambitions and passions. The increased prominence of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives in the corporate landscape are steered by the external markets and regulatory requirements, but are also piloted by the internal expectations of employees and consumers. Employees and consumers are increasingly looking for palpable proof of their organization’s commitment to social responsibility. The evolving world of work is undergoing transformative shifts, emphasizing trust, personalization, talent development, AI integration, and ESG initiatives. HR professionals are leading these changes, playing a pivotal role in navigating this dynamic landscape. Their proactive efforts shape inclusive, sustainable and technologically integrated workplaces, fostering growth, innovation, and employee well-being. In essence, HR stands as the vanguard in guiding businesses through the complexities of modern work.

15th National Marketing Konclave
2024-08-24 | Auditorium, Campus- 7, KIIT Deemed to be University, Bhubaneswar, Campus- 7, KIIT Deemed to be University, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, 751024, India
About Marketing KonclaveKonclaves serve as great platforms for knowledge sharing and co-creation between academia andindustry. Each year KIIT School of Management conducts different Konclaves i.e. National HRKonclave, National Marketing Konclave and National Finance Konclave where leaders from differentareas deliver keynote speeches, participate in different panel discussions and conduct area specificworkshops. These have proved to be a fountainhead of ideas with superb participation from theindustry, academia, and students.
Konclave Theme: Marketing in the Age of Disruption: Thriving in a Changing LandscapeThe business world is no stranger to change. However, the pace of disruption in recent years has been unprecedented, driven by advancements in technology, evolving consumer behaviour, and a growing emphasis on social responsibility. This year’s 15th National Marketing Konclave, organized by KIIT School of Management (KSOM), delves into this dynamic environment with the theme “Marketing in the Age of Disruption: Thriving in a Changing Landscape.”
Disruption can be a double-edged sword. On one hand, it can threaten established business models and render once-successful marketing strategies obsolete. A 2023 report by PwC, “Strategy & Trends: Global CEO Survey 2023”, highlighted how 73% of CEOs globally are concerned about the potential for disruption in their industries. Entire industries have been reshaped by disruptive forces, with companies struggling to adapt or being overtaken by nimbler competitors.
On the other hand, disruption also presents immense opportunities. Businesses that can anticipate and embrace change can develop innovative solutions and capture new market share. A 2023 McKinsey & Company, “The State of Organizations 2023”, emphasized the importance of fostering a culture of agility and experimentation within organizations. Companies that can quickly adapt their marketing strategies to changing consumer preferences and technological advancements are poised to thrive in the age of disruption.
The 15th National Marketing Konclave will explore how marketing is being disrupted across several key areas. As per the reports from Data Reportal, “Digital 2024: Global Overview Report” the digital revolution has fundamentally transformed consumer behaviour, with a staggering 4.66 billion people using social media in 2023. Marketers need to develop strategies that leverage these digital channels effectively. Disruption is also fuelled by the explosion of data and advanced analytics, allowing for targeted and data-driven marketing strategies.
Furthermore, the traditional linear customer journey is a thing of the past. Today’s consumers navigate a complex path, requiring marketers to develop a holistic understanding and create seamless omnichannel experiences. Finally, in a disrupted marketplace, customer experience (CX) is more important than ever. A recent study by Salesforce, “State of the Connected Customer”, found that 84% of customers say that the experience a company provides is as important as its products and services. The Conclave will thus explore strategies for designing and delivering exceptional customer experiences, ensuring businesses can thrive in this dynamic environment.

5th National Rural Management Conclave
2024-08-31 | KSRM Auditorium, Campus- 17, KIIT Deemed to be University, Bhubaneswar, KIIT University, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, 751024, India
ContextOver the years, different development policies and programmes have brought a significant change in the life and livelihoods of people in rural India. However, the rural-urban divide in the socio- economic conditions of people has been increasingly noticed. Interventions in rural contexts still lack innovation and collaboration. Moreover, rural professionals get further challenged with uncertainty and risk aversiveness. Adaptation of technology, improvement of skill matching to the needs of the emerging market and cost-effectiveness in livelihood interventions continue to be the grey areas in rural India. Moreover, managing development links to multiple dimensions including education, health, environment, climate change, disasters, skills, and finance in contemporary times. In this context, the role of Viksit Bharat 2047 of Government of India which promises to transform India towards a new world order of development, seems to be very crucial.
ObjectiveThe overall objective of the conclave is to bring the leaders from development and business sectors into a common platform and discourse on various challenges and way forward with special reference to ‘Inclusive Rural Management in Viksit Bharat’ and ‘Innovation and Adaptation in CSR’.

As we embark on this journey, we are thrilled to present a theme that encapsulates the cutting-edge advancements and transformative potential of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) in shaping the future of business.
As we embark on this journey of exploration and innovation, it is imperative to understand the transformative potential of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its profound impact on the business landscape. Generative AI represents a paradigm shift in how businesses innovate, create, and engage with customers. Unlike traditional AI systems designed for specific tasks, Generative AI can generate new content, images, and scenarios based on patterns learned from vast data. These models enable businesses to unlock new opportunities for creativity, personalization, and efficiency across various industries and applications.
Generative AI empowers businesses to create personalized campaigns, develop innovative Introduction product designs, and engage with customers more deeply. Financial institutions leverage Generative AI to forecast market trends, optimize investment strategies, and mitigate risks in a rapidly evolving landscape. In supply chain management, Generative AI enables organizations to optimize inventory levels, streamline logistics operations, and anticipate demand fluctuations with unprecedented accuracy. Human resources departments leverage Generative AI to analyze employee data, identify talent trends, and optimize recruitment and retention strategies. Understanding the ethical considerations and responsibilities associated with using Generative AI is essential. From ensuring data privacy and algorithmic transparency to promoting fairness and accountability, businesses must prioritize ethical principles in developing and deploying AI-driven solutions.
Through insightful discussions, interactive workshops, and hands-on experiences, this year’s Business Analytics Conclave aims to explore the transformative potential of Generative AI and its role in shaping the future of business. We invite you to join us as we delve into the possibilities, challenges, and opportunities that lie ahead in the era of Generative Artificial Intelligence.

Business Analytics Conclaves over the years:
The inaugural Conclave on “Transforming Businesses using Data” set the stage for discussions on leveraging data to drive business transformation and innovation. The 2nd National Business Analytics Conclave, with the theme “Demystifying Analytics,” delved into the complexities of analytics and demystified its applications across industries and domains. In the 3rd National Business Analytics Conclave, the theme was “Industry, Analytics & Growth in the Next Decade,” which explored the future landscape of analytics and its implications for industries in the upcoming decade. The 4th National Business Analytics Conclave, with the theme “Building a Sustainable Inclusive Future: Industrial Challenges & Opportunities in Analytics,” addressed the industrial challenges and opportunities in analytics while emphasizing sustainability and inclusivity. In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, organizations constantly seek innovative solutions to navigate new frontiers and stay ahead of the curve. Generative Artificial Intelligence represents a paradigm shift in how businesses innovate, create, and engage with customers. This year, we have chosen the theme “Navigating Business Frontiers through Generative Artificial Intelligence” to explore the transformative potential of Gen AI-driven innovation and its impact on businesses across industries.

Introduction

Future of Finance- In the Age of Disruptive Technology

In recent times, technology has emerged as both the harbinger of disruption and the catalyst for evolution. As acclaimed futurist Alvin Toffler aptly stated, “The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.” Embracing this ethos, the future of finance must embrace a culture of constant adaptation and innovation, leveraging disruptive technologies to navigate the complexities of a rapidly evolving global economy.At the heart of this transformation lies the ubiquitous influence of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. With the ability to process vast troves of data at unprecedented speeds, AI holds the promise of revolutionizing every facet of financial services, from risk assessment and portfolio management to fraud detection and customer service. In the age of AI, the most important skill is going to be the ability to learn new things continuously. Moreover, blockchain technology emerges as a transformative force, offering decentralized solutions to age-old trust and transparency challenges in financial transactions.Furthermore, the proliferation of FinTech Start-ups and digital platforms democratizes access to financial services, empowering individuals and businesses alike to transcend traditional barriers.Fintech has the potential to make financial services more affordable, more accessible, and more inclusive. In this dynamic landscape, the future of finance belongs to those who dare to challenge convention, embrace innovation, and harness the transformative power of disruptive technology. As Charles Darwin famously observed-
“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is most adaptable to change.”
Thus, as we stand on the cusp of a new era, let us embark on this journey with courage, curiosity, and conviction, forging a future of finance that is as bold and boundless as the imagination itself.
Under this background, the 15thFinance Conclave focuses on- the Future of Finance, as we explore the opportunities, challenges, and innovations shaping the financial landscape for tomorrow. The conclave aims to deliberate and chart a course toward a brighter, more inclusive, and technologically empowered future.The Conclave is set to spark insightful discussions on a wide range of topics revolving around the theme of embracing disruptive technology in finance. Some of the expected discussion points include:

Arsenic in the Environment Arsenic and other Pollutants, Water Security and One Health under Global Climate Change Scenario
2024-10-20 - 2024-10-24 | Campus-6 Auditorium, KIIT, Bhubaneswar, 751024, India
About the CongressArsenic and other co-occurring pollutants in the environment have been an issue of major concern in the last decades because of the serious impact on human health coming from drinking water and certain foods with low-medium levels of pollutants for prolonged periods. Globally, more than 100 million people are at risk. Since 2006, eight events of the International Congress on “Arsenic in the Environment” have been held in different areas of the world: Mexico 2006, Spain 2008, Taiwan 2010, Australia 2012, Argentina 2014, Sweden 2016, China 2018, and The Netherlands 2021.
Arsenic and co-occurring pollutants in drinking water (mainly groundwater) have emerged as a global health concern. Over the past three decades, India has been at the forefront of research on arsenic biogeochemical cycling, health effects, technologies for arsenic removal, and sustainable mitigation measures. However, research on other pollutants, like different organic and inorganic contaminants, trace elements, bio-medical pollutants, micro/nano-plastics, etc., has been explored extensively in the Indian subcontinent and South Asia as well. During the last decade, the presence of arsenic and other pollutants in edible items, possibly also other food of plant origins, has attained increasing attention.

KSOM Finance Conclave 2025

Building a Resilient Financial Ecosystem for Viksit Bharat @2047

As India moves toward the milestone of Viksit Bharat @2047, our financial system must not only scale—it must evolve. For industry leaders, this is a pivotal moment. The task at hand is not just about adapting to change, but actively shaping the architecture of a resilient, inclusive, and future-ready financial ecosystem. Resilience today is multi-dimensional.
It includes the ability to not only absorb shocks — economic, geopolitical, or environmental, but also to pivot swiftly in response to technological disruption, changing customer expectations, and regulatory transitions. From credit delivery to capital markets, from digital payments to green finance, every node of the financial value chain must be reimagined with agility and trust at its core.
For those at the helm of financial institutions, fintech ventures, and corporates, the responsibility is twofold: to drive innovation and to ensure that this innovation translates into meaningful impact across segments. Whether it’s democratizing credit for MSMEs, enhancing access for underserved communities, or ensuring ESG goals are embedded in financial decision-making—your leadership will define the direction we take. This transformation demands collaboration—between regulators and innovators, policymakers and practitioners, academia and industry. It calls for expanding financial literacy, strengthening digital infrastructure, and fostering trust in institutions. It means ensuring that small businesses, women entrepreneurs, and marginal farmers are not just included in the financial narrative but are empowered through it. However, the transformation cannot be left to policy alone. It requires industry stewardship—bold thinking backed by ethical grounding, competitive excellence paired with collaborative intent. India’s vast and diverse landscape demands models that are scalable yet sensitive to local realities.
This conclave offers a platform to reflect on this shared responsibility. It is an invitation to discuss and co-create solutions that are not only commercially sustainable but also nationally significant. Together, we have the opportunity to turn the vision of Viksit Bharat into a lived reality—where finance empowers lives, enables growth, and endures the tests of time.
