Your complete office in the cloud.
Staying in touch even after graduating from IIMB!
Here’s where it all began in 2004.
3
Rakesh Godhwani and his batch mates graduated.
They went their different ways. And hardly stayed in touch.
5
The same happened with every batch starting 1976.
6
Which was close to 10,000 graduates.
As a result there was no way to get in touch with anyone.
To encourage them to offer support.
Or to host reunions.
Or to discuss ideas.
Or even to catch up for old time’s sake.
4 years after graduating, Rakesh decided to look for a solution to this problem.
He adopted Office 365 to get everyone together.
And because it didn’t need on-site hardware, they could begin immediately.
And dramatically scale up every time a new batch graduated.
Without shelling out too much on technology.
Today, Rakesh is connected with an alumni of 7,000 people
Which helps in…
