Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan’s S.P. Jain Institute of Management and Research (SPJIMR), ranked India’s No. 1 Business School (FT ‘Masters in Management’ Rankings 2024), has partnered with Emeritus to introduce an Executive Certificate Programme in AI for Business. This initiative aims to equip professionals with the expertise to harness artificial intelligence (AI) for innovation, operational efficiency, and competitive advantage.

Meanwhile, a study by BCG and NASSCOM predicts India’s AI market will reach $17 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 25–35%.
Commenting on the programme, Prof. Ashish Desai, Associate Professor and Programme Director at SPJIMR, stated, “This seven-month online programme is designed to help mid-to-senior professionals leverage AI’s transformative power for sustainable business growth.”
The curriculum includes AI-powered business strategies, data-driven decision-making, Generative AI, and machine learning applications.
