RTC Objectives

AIMS Institute of Higher Education (AIMS-IHE) has made a mark within a decade of its inception by consistently being ranked & rated as one of the best private B-Schools in the country by various rating agencies over the years. During 2014, the Business world B-School survey has ranked AIMS as 18th Best B-School in the country. By the same survey AIMS-IHE is also rated to have 5th best intellectual capital among more than 3000 B-Schools in the country. Times of India B-School Survey, 2015 rated AIMS as 4th Best B-School in South India. The hospitality programme has also been consistently ranked among top-10 in the country and the graduates are widely accepted by leading chains in India and abroad. Also, students of various programs have been securing university ranks. AIMS is permanently affiliated to Bangalore University.

School of Business at AIMS Institutes was set up in the year 1998 with the broad objective to impart professional education and training in various aspects of modern management. AIMS School of Business takes into account the process of preparing a student to master the art of solving business problems. Our aim is to provide students with the best opportunities to develop conceptual & analytical skills during their course of study. AIMS Institutes fosters an attitude essential for the aspirant's growth and ultimate development into competent, skilled and effective managers.

School of Business at AIMS Institutes seeks to provide the perfect learning ambience for budding management professionals. Equipped with highly reputed faculty and one of the best educational facilities, its goal is to spearhead the growth of its students into well-versed and skillful managers of the future.

Natural resource constraints and global environmental risks are challenging the traditional linear economy – where companies “take, make and dispose”. Companies will have to adjust to a new circular economy to contribute in global sustainability – one in which resources are kept in use for as long as possible, and products and materials are recovered and regenerated at the end of their service life.

The AIMS Centre for Sustainability of AIMS Institutes encourages a greater appreciation of global sustainability with a particular focus on manufacturing and service industry, agriculture sector, corporate houses, government, academic institutions, researchers and NGO. The ACS views global sustainability as an integrated concept, rather than as separate environmental, economic, and social as each of these elements is inseparable from the each other. The main aim in organizing the International Round Table is to motivate all stakeholders to explore contributions, opportunities, best practices, new research and share experiences for potential contribution under the broader topic of circular economy to achieve Global Sustainability.

ACS plans to have wide ranging interactive interdisciplinary discussions by domain experts and research paper presentations. RTC will generate a better understanding, appreciation of the role of circular economy in achieving global sustainability and make recommendations towards achievement of the goal of global sustainability to make world a better place to live. The outcomes of the RTC will be published in a book having ISBN.
