ISH Celebrates Convocation Of 144 Young Professionals

Indian School of Hospitality (ISH) celebrated the graduation of 144 young professionals into the expansive world of global hospitality at the second convocation of the institution.

Patu Keswani, Chairman and Managing Director of Lemon Tree Hotels, was the Chief Guest for the convocation. “Always aim for perfection and never settle for anything less. If you aim for perfection in what you do, you will achieve excellence.  As future leaders, you also need to think of how you can contribute to nation-building. It can be done by giving a chance to those who are deprived of opportunities,” Keswani advised the graduating batch.

Degrees were conferred on students from diverse academic disciplines, including hospitality management, culinary arts, diploma courses and post-graduate programs. Exceptional students received special accolades and awards, further enhancing ISH's reputation as a crucible for the next generation of industry leaders.

“Today's milestone is a definitive moment in shaping the trajectory of the Indian hospitality sector. Our graduates are not just armed with skill sets; they are fortified with a global perspective, a resilient spirit of innovation and the mindsets of respect for the environment and respect for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion that will make them socially conscious leaders of the future,” Dilip Puri, Founder & Executive Chairman, ISH encapsulated the essence of the day.

“As our students embark on their next chapter, they do so carrying the ISH ethos—an unwavering commitment to sustainability and community.  These young leaders are geared to redefine success in the hospitality sector, emphasising both people and planet,” Kunal Vasudeva, Co-Founder & Managing Director, ISH said.
