For the past Eleven years, the International Youth Conference has been a beacon of inspiration and a platform for aspiring young leaders from across the world, and it is constantly striving to carry on its legacy. The Youth Conference began in 2014, when the seed of the event saw its maiden flowering and discussions on “Harnessing India’s Demographic Dividend“ began. India had the biggest percentage of young people in 2014, and conversations on such an appropriate theme produced excellent outcomes. The second Youth Conference in 2015 highlighted the growing importance of “Marketing and Communication for Young India” and educated diverse stakeholders on its complexities. The third youth conference was held on the theme “Skilling Young India for Global Leadership”, as skilling is of paramount importance to creating the leaders of tomorrow.
The 4th Youth Conference was done with the contemporary theme “Harnessing Youth for Development, Sustainability, and Happiness: Imperatives and Challenges for SAARC and Emerging Asia” to educate young people about the growing significance of sustainability and happiness in culture. We at Jaipuria have long held the belief that change is the only constant and that it evolves according to the needs and behaviours of young people. To comprehend youth and their interconnected nature, the 5th Youth Conference, “Harmonizing Education, Employment & Empowerment: Role of Academia, Business & Government,” was created. Harnessing the power of intellect from the conscience, stepping into the foundation to redefine education, and making the youth empowered and employed stood as an inviting topic and attracted a lot of great minds, eager to learn, from all corners of India as well as overseas.
Further, the 6th International Conference focused on celebrating youth as innovators, trend-setters, and leaders in the digital age. Jaipuria has been a notable trailblazer in digitizing itself and it recognizes the urgency of the situation and is encouraging its youth to embrace technology and the digital world. The institution raised the bar for its conference by inviting innovators and thought leaders from other sectors to exchange information. The 7th International Conference stressed the importance of business ethics and focused discussions on “Re-Imagining Leadership for a Global Workforce: Fostering Professionalism and Ethics for Young Leaders.” The conference brought together academicians, industry experts, and policy makers on a single platform to carry out intellectual deliberations, discuss the current scenario, and suggest strategies. To instil this idea, the 8th Conference’s theme was “Envisioning Business for a Better Tomorrow: Innovate, Integrate, and Impact.” We firmly believe that innovation is the capacity to view change as an opportunity rather than a threat, and despite numerous setbacks, we have triumphed. The 9th IYC, which was conducted under the topic “Envisioning India’s Future: Growth, Innovation, Sustainability, Happiness & Well-Being,” was hosted to promote the idea that having a healthy mind is just as vital as having a healthy body. The 10th Conference witnessed thoughts on “Netritva 4.0: Leadership in the era of connection and collaboration” which was firmly grounded in an appreciation of the essentials leading with people rather leading people per se.
So far in these conferences, there has been:
