Day 3
INIZIO 2026 Day 3: from orientation to industry awareness
By Day 3, MBA Orientation 2026–28 moves from team-building into something closer to a working research project. Students are handed a real, sprawling question — how does India's geography map onto its corporate ecosystem — and asked to answer it in groups, with data, not guesses.
The day closes by turning that outward-facing research inward, introducing Radiant Club as a place for MBA students to start narrowing down which part of business — HR, marketing, operations, IT or finance — actually interests them.
Decoding Industries, Creating Pathways
Corporate India Quest: India's map meets India's corporate map
Corporate India Quest split MBA students into 22 groups, each researching a different part of India's industrial and corporate landscape. Twenty-one states were represented, with one group taking on the Seven Sisters region — turning a country-sized subject into something a small team could actually study in depth.

Regional Insight, Corporate Perspective
From India's map to India's corporate map
The exercise’s real value sits in the connection it forces: a state isn’t just a place on a map, it’s a cluster of industries, headquarters and job markets. Learning to read that connection early gives MBA students a more concrete way to think about where specific sectors are concentrated — useful context for later decisions about internships, specialisations and where a career might actually take them.
