March 1, 2013 - PRLog -- S.P. Jain Institute of Management & Research: SPJIMR (http://www.mbauniverse.com/mumbaimba.php) is an autonomous management institute with entrepreneurial agility, personal freedom with professional accountability and corporatized culture, structure and processes. Since its inauguration in 1981 by the then British Prime Minister Rt. Honble Margaret Thatcher, it has been consistently recognized as one of the top 10 management institutes in the country, by the virtue of its innovative pedagogic approach and ability to adapt to the changing business requirements.
