Points to NOTE about conference

Superb Quality of Research: The Great Lakes-NASMEI Conference is among the finest International conferences in the marketing area in India. During the past, we have had presentations by professors and doctoral students from leading schools in U.S.A., India, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Switzerland, France and Hong Kong; approximately half from U.S.A. and other countries and half from India.

Convenient Timing of Conference: Every year the conference is held in December. Typically, this is a holiday period for everyone with excellent weather and the famous music season in the Chennai area. So delegates can come, present their papers, and either head back or go on a holiday in Tamil Nadu with numerous things to see nearby.
