I enjoyed the experience of seeing how business is done in India. I also enjoyed interacting with the very high quality workforce, something we've heard a lot about in the context of service sector and India.

Program Overview

Thank you for your interest in India Lab, a new initiative of the MIT Sloan School of Management. Based on MIT Sloan’s renowned Global Entrepreneurship Lab (G-Lab) and China Lab programs, India Lab enables companies to collaborate with the world’s leading business students on critical projects.

India Lab is an exceptional new program, combining traditional classroom learning with intensive real-world experience. Student teams work on what is essentially a 3-month, mini-consulting project. Companies set the project focus and negotiate with their teams to agree on the scope, schedule and deliverables. That is, our teams work on the problems host companies want to fix.

This website is focused on providing potential host companies with an in-depth view of the program, and the value it has provided.

If you would like to be a host company for India Lab, or if you have ideas to enhance to the program, please contact us directly at indialab-faculty@mit.edu with any questions or ideas. On behalf of the students of India Lab, we look forward to partnering with you.
