A WORD
FROM OUR
MANAGING
DIRECTOR
Dear Reader,
2014-15 was a Rubicon moment for Imarticus Learning as we
set out to strengthen our product and regional portfolio as well
as our corporate relationships. Looking back, we have achieved
more than we aimed for. Our revenues have doubled, both on
the back of a thriving retail business, which saw a 120%
increase in our student base, as well as our Corporate Training
business which saw us build mutually beneficial relationships
with many of you. I thank you for continuing to believe in us, as
well as our exceptionally talented team of over 100
professionals who make it possible.
Human capital will only get you so far. This is where venture
capital comes in to ignite and sustain startups with a pipe
dream. You only have to scan the headlines of any newspaper to
see that venture capital is exploding in India whether it is Tiger
Global Managements $85 million dollar investment in
Delhivery, the logistics company or the mushrooming of ecommerce entrepreneurs and venture capital firms. But it takes
more than just a few deals to re-create Silicon Valley and I
explore the key cultural trends that are driving this renewed
confidence in Venture Capital.
The next notch on our goal post is Online Education and in this
issue, Amit Ratanpal tackles the growing space of Online
Education and e-learning. Globally, e-learning is a $56.2 billion
business and that figure is expected to grow exponentially to
$107 billion by 2015. With good reason: e-Learning offers cost
savings, flexibility and repeatability in training and is less
disruptive to corporate culture than classroom training. In this
issue, we explore the learning options you can now add to your
arsenal to train your employees. We are, of course, excited
about the launch of our first online program on Capital Markets
in June, 2015, with many more in the pipeline.
Apart from Training, Imarticus also provides a range of
Corporate Solutions designed to assist firms in meeting its
skillset requirements. A case study showcases how we put in
place the Sourcing to Placement model, a pioneering step in the
professional education space, to source, train and onboard
relationship managers at a leading Indian commercial bank.
We are very excited about what 2015-2016 will entail and, as
always, I look forward to hearing from you and hosting you at
our offices in Mumbai, Bangalore and Chennai. Please do get in
touch with us at corporaterelations@imarticus.com for any
requirements or suggestions to serve you better.

Scoreboard
India: 69
China: 66
We still lag behind in value, but raising over a billion dollars in three
consecutive quarters is no small feat its more than a 200% gain
over the previous year.
As I write this, the Sensex crashed 723 points on the back of sustained
FII outflows, lackluster industrial production numbers, worries about a
delayed monsoon, and an underperforming and straitjacketed
government. This is not due to Incredible India. So how has this come
about? Is it hype or is our newfound love for start-ups here to stay?
One big movement we have seen is the reach for scale. E-commerce
firms are no longer the niche players catering to your disposable
income. They want the share of your wallet that you spend on groceries
(Bigbasket.com) and basic furniture (Urbanladder, Fabfurnish). That
doesnt mean niche players dont exist but they need to ensure that the
market is big enough and the value proposition, solid.

LEARNING NUGGETS:
ELearning is not One size fits all Adult
learners need to be put in the drivers seat and
control what they learn and how they learn.
Accordingly,
trainings
need
to
have
personalized, competency-based learning paths
that give the learner much needed flexibility.
Shorter attention spans also mean learning is
compressed into bite-sized nuggets of shorter
duration for easier consumption.
One size
does not fit
all!

BUSINESS SIMULATIONS:
Working professionals need learning that is immediate,
relevant, and contextual. Business simulations fill this gap by
focusing more on application of knowledge. Simulations are
complex training interventions that simulate, or mock up, real
business scenarios or issues to promote strategic thinking,
decision making, and problem solving. For instance, a role-play
sales encounter with customers is the perfect training ground
for your sales executives before they pitch to real clients.
