Judge Business School and ISB agree to foster technology entrepreneurship

In October 2006, Judge Business School of Cambridge University and the Indian School of Business have signeed a three year international student exchange programme. The programme will enable selected students from the ISB to visit Cambridge and enroll as full-time MBA students for one academic semester, whilst the selected students from Judge Business School will enroll at Hyderabad for a similar appropriate period.

While visiting their host schools, the students will attend lectures and undertake consulting projects with host Microsoft Research on "emerging" technologies in order to familiarise themselves with technology entrepreneurship. Microsoft Research is supporting this international exchange programme. To help foster technology enterpreneurship, it will be inviting the exchange students to undertake business feasibility studies on technologies arising from the research activities at their Cambridge, England and Banglore, India laboratories. These projects will allow the students to learn about global issues in a fast growing technology environment, equipping them with the insight and practical skills necessary to develop them into managers for the future.
