IILM invited Prof. Gatien Beaumont from The University of Lorraine, France to Greater Noida campus in the month of February 2016 as a international guest lecturer \u00a0to conduct one of the core electives in PG – Entrepreneurship and State & Society, as part of Social Enterprise. We decided to have one on one interaction with him, and ask about his experience in India and the IILM campus in particular. It was indeed a great opportunity for our fellow students and the staff to to know what\u00a0he had to say about IILM as a B-School in India. We asked him a few questions, and received a quite an insight about his thoughts and teaching experience.<\/p>\n

– What is the relevance of the Module taken by you at IILM?<\/strong>
\nI stayed during 3 weeks in the campus of Greater Noida to conduct a course called Social Entrepreneurship. I had 3 main objectives with this course.<\/p>\n

First, the course allowed the students to discover social entrepreneurship. Starting from an analysis of the need of people in India and the development of a social company.<\/p>\n

Second, i acknowledged the students how consulting companies use several tips to help the companies develop their business.<\/p>\n

Third, the students were taught how to discover the business model canvas. A very innovative and play-full technique that allow to study the business model in the developing of a company, a product or a service.<\/p>\n

– What is your say on Faculty and Infrastructure of IILM?
\n<\/strong>The campus of Greater Noida is quiet, secure and fully equipped place to study. The library contains a large number of different works and the subscription to the business press allow to obtain current information.<\/p>\n

– Tell us something about IILM’s Campus Life.\"IMG_3750\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

My stay of three weeks allowed me to take some time out to know the teachers and the students of IILM. I discovered a welcoming, passionate and involved educational team and respectful workers, and interesting bunch students.<\/p>\n

– What do you think about India, and any experience so far that you would like to share with us.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This trip was my first time in India. India is an incredible country. A huge country made of contrasts. If you ask me what impressed me most in India,\u00a0I would answer immediately \u00a0\u00ab The People\u00a0!\u00a0\u00bb They are welcoming, generous, and open-minded people. It sometimes amuses me to say that during my stay in the IILM I learned as much as I taught.<\/p>\n
