25 years

The Manfest story began in 1988, when students at IIM Lucknow held a small inter-IIM debate contest. Over the next 24 years, Manfest has grown from strength to strength, to become one of the largest business school fests in Asia. Manfest owes its success to the highest quality of participation from thought leaders, students and industry. On the long journey from relative obscurity to national recognition, Manfest has always prided itself on its bold, pioneering new ideas. Testimony to this fact is the youngest vertical, CSR. Added just 4 years ago, it has grown to equal the others in scale and impact. The Manfest legacy is enshrined in the spirit of innovation and openness, which is reflected in the way every event is redesigned, every year. Manfest is also one of the friendliest and most hospitable fests in the country today, inspired to integrity and humility by the likes of Manjunath Shanmugam and Satyendra Dubey[/b].

Theme of the Event

A moment of magic. A single night of brilliance. One sweeping achievement. While these flashes of inspiration might make news and last a season, we at IIM Lucknow’s Manfest celebrate consistency this year. This year marks the 25th anniversary of our annual business conclave. Fittingly, our theme this year is: ‘Innovate, Implement and Inspire: Build a Legacy’. We seek to celebrate the businesses, leaders and institutions, which have persevered and prospered, and attempt to take lessons from their ideology and methodology. Dynamic and constantly evolving as our world is, we explore how building a legacy requires the spirit to constantly innovate, the will and skill to implement those ideas, as well as the inspiration to repeat the process time and again.
