Dinesh Khanna and Deeptha Khanna, PGP Class of ’98

They have contributed towards the IIMB golden jubilee and in recognition of this contribution, an IIMB classroom is named “Kumar Khanna classroom”. We share their message here: 

“It is no exaggeration to say that IIM Bangalore changed our lives. For young 20-plus-year-olds growing up in military families, the institute opened up a world of business and opportunity that we had no understanding of. IIMB equipped us with core skills – analytical rigor, clarity in communication, strong strategic constructs, how to collaborate and work effectively in organizations… and even while we didn’t realize it then, the muscle memory of this rigor helped us in every step of our careers. But IIM Bangalore is special to us for more than the expected. It is also where we met, 26 years ago, and where our respective parents met as we graduated. This is where our very own Two States story was written. It is to honor the profound impact IIMB has had – not just on us, but on our two families as well — that we were delighted to offer a contribution in the name of our parents. We are thrilled with IIMB’s commitment to expand their platform to reach and shape even more lives. Congratulations and thank you.”
