XIME CHRONICLE
The Beginning
XIME was established in 1991 by a group of distinguished academicians under the leadership
of Prof. J. Philip, former Director of IIM, Bangalore.
It is located in the heart of Electronics City, the Silicon Valley of India, Bangalore with IT icons
such as Hewlett Packard, Infosys, TCS and Wipro as its neighbours. The campus vibrates
with myriad activities such as conventions, conferences, student competitions, short-term
industry relevant programmes and cultural activities along with excellent co-curricular
activities.
The Institute
XIME is today a global brand and hosts regular international events in collaboration with
over a dozen partner institutions around the globe, including student and faculty exchange
programmes and international study tours for its students.
Personalized attention to student development is a key tenet at XIME. The curriculum at the
institute is regularly reviewed and updated according to industry requirements. XIME has a
diverse faculty group, with good representation from senior positions in industry and civil
services as well. The institute can boast of virtually full and high quality placements in all
the years. It is little wonder then, that XIME is acknowledged as a leading B-School in South
India, being continuously ranked among the top thirty B-Schools in India, and is generally
seen as the second best in Bangalore after IIM-B.
XIME’s Flagship Programme is the two-year Post-graduate (PGDM) Diploma in Management,
which is admitting the 20th Batch of Students this year, 180 being the batch size.
XIME Kochi
XIME added another feather to its cap when its state-of-the-art campus at Kochi was
inaugurated on December 2, 2012 by Sri. Oommen Chandy, Hon’ble Chief Minister of
Kerala. PGDM at XIME Kochi got AICTE, approval for an annual intake of 120 students.
The first batch started in July 2013. XIME’s proposed new campus in Chennai should be

EVENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAMME
An Overview
Globalization, incredible advances in technology and the advent of cut throat competition have combined to bring about a high degree of professionalization in the practice of management. As these pressures grow, professionalization tends to embrace deeper and deeper levels of management practice. Event management is one such deeper level.
Event management is an option for consideration in determining the marketing mix and in implementing busi-ness strategy. An event is a show, or a meeting, or a conference arranged by an organizer to establish effective communication with a target audience. The organizer’s purpose is to convey a message which carries convic-tion to the audience and secures for the event organizer the support and commitment he is seeking from them. Increasingly, event management is getting professionalized and exposure to formal education is becoming a necessity for event strategists and event managers – especially those who are keen to enter or join the industry newly. Opportunities in the Event Management Industry are exploding and a survey carried out by XIME has borne out this fact. Opportunities include jobs at various levels as also entrepreneurial opportunities to set up event management companies specializing in specific types of events.
Broadly speaking there are two kinds of events to be managed: (a) business events and (b) social events. Business events include brand building, product launching, road shows, shareholder meetings, professional conferences, seminars, etc. Social events include marriages, religious ceremonies, community fes-tivals and so on. Now-a-days there are political events also which are coming into the purview of the event management industry. These include political meetings, mega rallies, political back office support events and so on. All events call for superior knowledge of the host industry as also the event management industry, to be able to conceptualize the event; and skills to transform the concept into a reality through the use of project management techniques, logistical support, choice of event related technology and a deep understanding of media, including digital media and social media.
XIME’s Certificate Programme in Event Management aims at facilitating aspiring entrants to this industry acquire appropriate levels of knowledge and skills in all these areas which are vital for success as professionals.
