The Story
Started as iMag in 2005 by the PGP participants, it was the first of its kind and was circulated primarily within the top 30 B Schools in India. In 2007, in teaming up with the Executive PGP participants, it was renamed as iCanvas and its reach was widened to the corporate world. In 2009, with the help of IIM Indore's Director , Dr. Ravichandran, the Magazine grew into its next phase of re-branding and has come out bigger and better with an even wider reach, as IIM Indore Management Canvas.
The Wharton Connection
IIM Indore Management Canvas also has a licensing agreement with Wharton School of Business, University of Pennsylvania. Apart from unlimited access to arguably the world's best portal of management articles, the Knowledge @ Wharton archives, the Magazine also has permission to print them. Copies of the Magazine also reach the Wharton campus.
