Imphal, December 22 2023:
The 3rd edition of the Corporate Leaders' Conclave 2023 organised by management students of Manipur Technical University (MTU) on the theme "Ensuring Business Continuity Amidst Adversity" was held at Hotel Imphal, North AOC on Friday.
The conclave was inaugurated with Commerce & Industries commissioner Pradeep Kumar Jha, Manipur Technical University registrar Ng Bhogendra and MANIDCO managing director Polem Lenin as chief guest, president and guest of honour respectively.
Addressing the gathering, PK Jha said that Manipur apart from its enviable record in the field of sports, and handloom and handicrafts, is also witnessing significant progress in medical and engineering sectors.
However, as far as the corporate sector is concerned, students with management background struggle to secure jobs in the state owing to negligible number of industries and private companies, consequently forcing many to leave their home state in search of a better future.
He also pointed out the need for the MTU management students to pursue internship in various government undertakings in the state including the office of chief electoral officer, where there is need for management, and enhance their experiences.
PK Jha also commended MTU for extending support in the survey conducted by the Election Commission.
The function was also attended by established entrepreneurs of the state, who shared their experience during the technical sessions, as well as MTU officials, faculty members and students.
