Faculty Co-Chairs
This programme was seeded and spearheaded by Anchal Jain, an IIMA alumnus (1987), who returned in 2013 to teach an executive programme in managing lifestyle businesses. His experience in Paris made him realize that the world has been ready for Indian products and brands, but for several reasons, Indian brands weren’t able to make that leap in terms of being ready for the world. This was more palpable in creative and lifestyle domains where aesthetics play a key role. The purpose behind the Creative and Cultural Businesses Programme is to enable lifestyle and creative entrepreneurs to harness their unique voices and bring them to the world in a sustainable and rewarding way.

This programme was first founded as CLLB (Crafting Luxury and Lifestyle Businesses) in 2013. In 2018 he was joined by Prof. Amit Karna and after several key modifications to the content and delivery, it was reinstated as the Creative & Cultural Businesses Programme.
Anchal and Amit together serve as the Faculty Co-Chair for CCBP.
