IBS had a double success in the Case Awards this year. The Case Centre's annual Awards, now in their 25th year, celebrate excellence in case writing and teaching in business education worldwide and are now considered the case method community's annual 'Oscars'.

This year Harvard dominated the case awards but IBS maintained its winning streak by scooping the HR/OB category award for the case "Çorporate Entrepreneurship and Innovation at Google, Inc," written by Adapa Srinivasa Rao and Debapratim Purkayastha. See the interview here:

IBS also had a major coup with Prof. Debapratim winning the 'Outstanding Contribution to the Case Method Award'. The coveted Award was constituted as a 'lifetime achievement' award by The Case Centre in 2011. The previous winners of this highly prestigious award were case method greats such as: Kamran Kashani, IMD Business School, Switzerland (2011); James A Erskine, Michiel R Leenders and Louise A Mauffette-Leenders, Richard Ivey School of Business, Canada (2012); Peter Killing, IMD Business School, Switzerland (2013); Nirmalya Kumar, London Business School, United Kingdom (2014).
