From looking for employment opportunities to opening up opportunities, a group of IIM Graduates are in the process of making it Big. Not many years ago in the hostel room of an IIM, a couple of friends, just into their usual chat, were worriedly discussing the difficulty many of their friends and juniors were facing with placements preparation and corporate readiness. Subhash Kakarla, wondered how to solve this burning problem which plagued most students in our country.

The question of how to bridge the gap between Campus and Corporate, develop skill sets in the right manner and get ready for placements. Subhash, an IIM alumnus, a gold medal recipient from the Hon'ble Vice President of India - Sri M. Venkaiah Naidu, a Cambridge qualified Business Communication specialist, author and a distinguished Public Speaker, envisioned the plan for an initiative that could address the problem, not just limited to his circle, but the society at large.  Not much later, he went ahead and along with a few of his friends, Professors and Corporate connections, initiated Phoenix Global.
