Overview

• The institute has submitted proposals to the Maharashtra government to establish a finance-focused hub in Navi Mumbai and a manufacturing-aligned centre in Pune.
• The Navi Mumbai hub is envisioned as a financial education centre developed with the RBI, NSE and other institutions, offering programmes in fintech, cybersecurity and trust management.
• Plans call for a staged rollout that begins with short-term, industry-relevant courses and later expands into longer-term programmes.
• The Pune proposal targets management training tailored to local manufacturing needs, including offerings in wealth management, data management and trust management.
• The announcements were made at IIM Mumbai’s second convocation attended by PK Mishra, as leaders also highlighted wider collaborations such as an upcoming Centre of Management Education in Angul with IIM Sambalpur and recent tie-ups with Whistling Woods and Kkala.
