IIM Mumbai Partners with Motilal Oswal Foundation for Oswal Knowledge Centre

The Motilal Oswal Foundation (MOF) and the Indian Institute of Management Mumbai (IIM Mumbai) are collaborating to create a cutting-edge center for learning and research. The new facility, Motilal Oswal Knowledge Centre (MOKC), will work as a catalyst in IIM Mumbai’s drive to improve academic infrastructure while supporting the Motilal Oswal Foundation’s commitment to boosting educational standards countrywide, Motilal Oswal’s press notice added.

This new institution is aimed to stimulate innovation and knowledge sharing in critical fields such as capital markets, business strategy, and financial research. The partnership is a response to the growing demand for education that is in line with industry standards and closes the gap between theory and practice—a critical skill for India's changing labor market.

The Motilal Oswal Foundation will promote innovation in capital markets, research, and development, highlighting its important role in growing the industry. The foundation has 33,400 square feet of dedicated space at MOKC. The remaining large area of MOKC will be used by IIM Mumbai for cutting-edge classrooms, research labs, and support services.

This center will act as a crucial link between academia and business, giving students the skills and information they need to succeed in the workplace and advance the country. The Motilal Oswal Knowledge Centre marks a significant milestone in our efforts to advance academic and research excellence. Our approach to research and education will be completely transformed by the Center.

This Center will enable our staff and students to work on groundbreaking projects that meet the demands of business by providing rooms specifically designated for academic innovation and financial research. As we expand our capabilities in education and research, partnerships like this will be vital in enabling us to continue growing as a premier institution,” according to Prof Manoj K Tiwari, Director of the Indian Institute of Management, Mumbai.
