Mumbai-based JK Diamonds Institute of Gems and Jewelry organised a convocation and knowledge series for its 2019 batch at Hotel Sahara Star on July 12th. Owner Jaynil Ajmera welcomed the chief guests Manit Shah, MD, Global Emerging Markets and COO, Murowa Diamonds, and Sarika Naheta, director, Jaipur Jewels and an alumnus of the institute.
Manit Shah, an alumnus of Harvard Business School and the London School of Economics, shared his insights about turnaround management and entrepreneurship, while Naheta, who studied at IIM-Indore, spoke about brand management and brand positioning. JK Diamonds managing partner Naman Ajmera held an interactive session with the two speakers and took questions from the audience.
