n the 1950s, when management education in India was still in an em
bryonic stage, Dr Vikram Sarabhai, scientist, visionary, and a wellknown
institution builder, foresaw the need for professionalization of
management training and research in India. These objectives inspired him
to set up the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad in 1962. To create
significant awareness on management concepts at the societal level and
prepare the industry to use managerial concepts, he established the Ahmedabad
Management Association (AMA) in 1956 as a registered society and
a charitable trust.
