Delhi University and OP Jindal Global University are collaborating to host the 74th Annual All India Commerce Conference (AICC) organized by the Indian Commerce Association. The conference, set to take place at both university campuses, anticipates the participation of over 2,500 delegates from various regions in India and around the world. With the overarching theme of 'One Earth-One Family-One Future,' the 74th AICC will encompass discussions on topics such as the New Education Policy 2020, business transformation and the digital economy, the evolution from Industry 4.0 to Industry 5.0 in the future of business, as well as entrepreneurship, innovation, and startups.

Addressing the commencement of the conference, Professor C. Raj Kumar, the founding Vice-Chancellor of OP Jindal Global University, emphasized the crucial role of institutions in empowering Indian youth through commerce and management education, in alignment with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision outlined in the Viksit Bharat 2047 program.

"Viksit Bharat 2047 envisages the economic transformation of our society, increase in manufacturing, expansion of the services sector, and bringing training and skill management as well. We have an aspiration of a $5 trillion economy, and the most important aspect of that is business education, which merges technology and commerce in a reimagined way. The economic apparatus of India cannot be reimagined without addressing the challenges of commerce education. The ICA-JGU conference comes at an important time which brings young people together with experts and faculty in commerce and management education", he added.

Sponsorship for the conference is provided by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, the Indian Council of Social Science Research (ICSSR), the Ministry of Education, the National Stock Exchange (NSE), Gas Authority of India Limited (GAIL), and the Indian Farmers Fertilizer Cooperative Limited (IFFCO).
