Mindscape


Mindscape’s since 2014 – A Journey full of challenges and wonderful experience:

It was in 2004-2005 a strong urge was felt, by the management of ASM Group of Institutes to initiative to certain programs at the group institutes to revive and strengthen the institute – industry Interaction from a long term perspective.We at the ASM Group of Institutes set up to try to formulate an event which facilitates a dialogue between our students, faculty and the industry executives through a competition hosted by the institute and participated by the industries in and around Pune.

Over the years, due to amazing support shown by the industries, Mindscape competition has come to be recognised as a ‘SIGNATURE’ event of the ASM. MINDSCAPE CASE STUDY COMPETITION is perhaps the only one such event conducted amongst all B-schools in India including IIMs. It is also remarkable that the mindscape competition is extremely ‘student Centric’ and all the preparatory work for the event is carried out by the students of the group Institutes The Mindscape Competition is about industry teams competing through their presentation on the analysis of selected case studies on various issues of business managements in areas such as Finance, Marketing, Operations, Human resource etc provided by the ASM Mindscape Committee. The competition is held at the ASM campus and the Jury for the evaluation are from industries and academia.

On account of increased crave for opportunities for conceptualization skills since the year 2006 there is an offshoot of the mindscape event “COLLAGE COMPETITION”; providing major national and international themes on current issues to the students to develop and present their conceptual skills in the Collage Competition coinciding with the Mindscape completion.
