Message of the Executive Director

My Dearest Students,

Firstly, I would like to congratulate you on the successful completion of your degree. This feat is never easy, but this year it was especially difficult. In addition to an already challenging final semester, you were faced with unprecedented circumstances. Post-graduation blues along with a global pandemic would have added to your worries.

Your courage in the face of these uncertain, challenging, and unnerving times, has been extraordinary. You have persisted with zeal and vigor unique to you; harness this passion and vigor as you venture out into the world for which the IBA has rigorously prepared you for; head held high because you have proved your mettle.

I hope you remember the deep friendships forged, lessons learnt, and the academic rigour during your stay and cherish it all; for your experiences at the IBA are irreplaceable and hold no parallel.

My dear students, not only am I exceptionally proud of all of you on this remarkable achievement, I am also grateful to you for the time you have invested in us. Your eagerness to learn, your innovativeness and adaptation to the ever-changing situations, make the IBA what it is.

Go out in the world and make the IBA proud! Once again, a very big congratulation to you and your proud family.

S Akbar Zaidi
Executive Director
