Bhawanipur Global Campus and IBM Host Technovate 2026, a Two-Day Immersive Tech and AI Event for Business Students

The IBM delegates who led the sessions included Mr. Aman Bakshi, Manager of Institutional Engagement and Senior AI and Data Scientist; Mr. Mayank Doda, Strategic Leader; and Mr. Sunny Kumar, Data Analytics professional. Together, they brought applied industry knowledge into the room, giving students a grounded understanding of how AI and data tools are being used across real business environments today.

The event reflects BGC’s ongoing academic partnership with IBM, through which the IBM Business Analytics certification is embedded within the School of Business and Management’s curriculum. Technovate 2026 extended that collaboration into a live, competitive learning environment, where students could apply what they have been building in the classroom under direct guidance from IBM professionals.

Commenting on the initiative, Dr. Subir Sen, Dean Bhawanipur School of Business and Management said, “Technovate 2026 is a direct expression of what we mean when we talk about industry-integrated education. Having IBM’s experts work with our BBA and MBA students over two full days, not just for a lecture but through live competitions, hands-on sessions, and real conversations about the industry, is exactly the kind of learning experience that sets our students apart. This is what future-ready education looks like in practice.”
