In the early nineteen nineties when the globalization had become the buzz word in the Indian economy the deliberations between the then Governor of RBI Mr. I. G. Patel, Mr. Ram Tarneja and then M.D. of the Bennett & Coleman Group and Principal Dr. Indu Shahani paved the way for the International Economics Convention. The first IEC was hosted by H.R.

MMK College hosts, deliberates and discusses on the theme “Human Capital Development through Higher Education: Lessons for India” Today in its 27th year, it has its own success story to tell.
