MDI Gurgaon & Emerald Emerging Markets Case Studies Conducts 2nd Edition of Case Development, Mentoring and Publication Workshop

MDI, Gurgaon, in association with Emerald Emerging Markets Case Studies, (EEMCS) organized the second edition of the Case Development, Mentoring and Publication Workshop.

The objective of the workshop was to mentor and train faculty from other B-schools on developing unique cases on multiple critical issues. In the business world, emerging markets present immense opportunities along with challenges. Therefore, there is a need to understand the issues specific to each emerging market and develop classroom learning material related to various business concepts and management disciplines. The workshop highlighted a special collection of cases that focused on the ‘Emerging Markets Context’ unlike other case collections.

As a mentoring partner, MDI Gurgaon conducted a three-day virtual classroom component from May 10 to 12, 2021 to discuss case proposals. As many as 28 participants from B schools of India, Bangladesh, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia were a part of the workshop, and a total of 23 case proposals were received.

Emerald Emerging Markets Case Studies (EEMCS), as the knowledge partner, has welcomed well-researched, instructive, and multimedia online cases about the most interesting companies in complex Emerging Market contexts, to be used by faculty to develop effective managers globally.

The three-day virtual workshop was conducted under the mentorship of Prof. Ritu Srivastava and Prof. Parul Gupta from MDI Gurgaon. The Institute will extend mentorship till September 30, 2021, to help participants complete the case.
