About the Conference

In today's dynamic global landscape, the call for ethical, inclusive, and sustainable business practices has never been louder. Satatya, derived from the Sanskrit word for continuity and truthfulness, embodies the spirit of enduring responsibility in business. The conference on business sustainability and responsible business practices serves as a platform to explore how businesses can integrate sustainability at the core of their operations-across governance, innovation, finance, supply chains, and customer engagement.
Students and early-stage researchers play a vital role in shaping the responsible future of a nation. They must be equipped with the right knowledge, skills, and research orientation to understand how finance, audit, governance, distribution and entrepreneurship frameworks connect with sustainability imperatives. This student conference aims to create a collaborative platform for knowledge-sharing, debate, and innovative ideas that can guide companies and stakeholders towards building a resilient, inclusive, and sustainable economy.
