Shri Jayant Chaudhary, Minister of State (Independent Charge), Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, Government of India, inaugurated the NextGen Institute of Business Excellence (NIBE), an initiative under NextGen SCM Connect.

How Industry Can Benefit from NIBE
In today’s competitive business environment, organisations need skilled professionals who can translate knowledge into measurable business outcomes. NIBE aims to provide companies with a platform to explore customised corporate training, upskilling programmes, executive education and industry-relevant learning.
Organisations can engage with NIBE to identify skill gaps, develop future-ready talent, enhance managerial capabilities and build stronger leadership pipelines. The initiative also seeks to encourage collaboration between industry experts and professionals, ensuring that learning remains relevant to real-world business challenges.
Atul Tiwari and Sanjay Pal, Co-founders and Directors of NextGen SCM Connect, have envisioned NIBE as an extension of the organisation’s industry engagement ecosystem, connecting corporate expertise with professional learning and development.
Girish VS., CEO and Dean of NIBE, will lead the institution’s academic and operational direction, supporting the development of relevant learning initiatives for professionals and organisations.
The inauguration marks a new chapter for NextGen SCM Connect, expanding its focus beyond industry conferences and leadership forums to include structured professional development.
NIBE invites corporates, industry leaders, HR heads, L&D professionals and business organisations to explore opportunities for collaboration and workforce development.
The larger vision is to help organisations build a skilled, adaptable and future-ready workforce while contributing to India’s growing skill development ecosystem.
