Management Development Programme on "R&D Management"
17-19 September 2009

About the Programme
The post-liberalization era has opened Indian market to foreign goods and services. This has led to intense competition and forced Indian companies to pay attention to R&D with a view reduce costs and produce innovative products. The availability of highly educated scientific and technical manpower has also led to a host of MNC’s to set-up R&D and technical development centers in India. In order to focus on issues confronting R&D managers we propose to organize a three-day program on R&D management with emphasis on market driven R&D.
