Lead Bid Management at RPL India Services Shiva Bhaskar, who delivered the keynote address, urged students to adopt an entrepreneurial mindset rather than merely functioning as managers. He explained the significance of ownership and adaptability as essential traits for future leaders.

Highlighting the impact of AI on industries, he encouraged students to embrace digital transformation, citing examples from healthcare, finance, retail, and logistics, where AI is revolutionising business operations. Continuous learning, adapting to market trends and leveraging technology to drive innovation were the key to success, he noted.
