"Last year, on November 10, IIMA Archives celebrated sixty years of IIMA with the permanent exhibition 'Brick by Brick'. This year, on November 10, to mark the first anniversary of 'Brick by Brick', IIMA Archives held a temporary exhibition, 'Not Yet 25: IIMA through Pranlal Patel's lens, 1967-1985'."
The IIMA Archives is open to visitors on all working days from 9.30 a.m. to 5.30 p.m. The Communication Department brings IIMA's executive education programme participants for a tour of the 'Brick by Brick' exhibition. During the last three months, the Archives has had a little less than 600 visitors. IIMA Archives also responds to requests for IIMA archival records. During the last quarter, there have been 41 such requests from research scholars. Here is an interesting note from one of the users: "I do research on how executive education as a new concept for developing top executives spread as an international phenomenon from the US after World War II. In India, this idea was expressed in the 3-tier programme (3-TP) soon after IIMA was established. This programme was unique compared to the executive programmes at Harvard Business School, which was strongly involved in establishing IIMA. The documents I studied at IIMA Archive gave me new insights into the role that Indian actors played in transforming the American concept of executive education to a unique and sustainable concept that matched the Indian context."
