Launch of SoGL

Launch of the School of Global Leadership | BESTIU – India Foundation

It was a moment of immense pride as Shri Dharmendra Pradhan ji, Hon’ble Union Minister of Education, Government of India, unveiled and formally launched the School of Global Leadership in New Delhi on 16 December 2025 at ITC Maurya , New Delhi.

The School of Global Leadership is a collaborative initiative of our Bharatiya Engineering, Science and Technology Innovation University (BESTIU) from Andhra Pradesh and India Foundation, New Delhi , envisioned as a distinctive platform to nurture leadership for a rapidly evolving global order.

SOGL PGP Diploma program positions itself at the intersections all the way from far East and West, drawing from India’s civilizational ethos while engaging ASEAN, Middle East, and trans-Atlantic networks. The program goes beyond classrooms through multi continent, multi-country immersions, innovation sandboxes, and future-tech policy labs.

The School is entirely practitioner-led with Shri Jayant Sinha ji as Chair, along with Ambassador Gautam Bambawale ji and Ambassador Jaydeep Majumdar ji as Co-Chairs, supported by an eminent group of mentors, bringing exceptional depth, credibility, and real-world relevance to our program.

A defining step towards shaping principled, globally attuned leadership for India and the world.
