[/b]The dialogue as a form of conversation has had its proponents from time immemorial. Think Plato, Aristotle and Socrates.

Harnessing that spirit, Manfest brings India’s Youth Icon, a dialogue between an iconic business leader and an IIML student attended by an audience of India’s best students. Expect insights getting shared, histories being revealed, and class and style getting redefined.
