Asthra 2022- International Symposium on Soft Power: Creating Strategic Advantage

About

School of Business, Kochi is organising an International Symposium on Soft Power: Creating Strategic Advantage on December 17, 2022.

‘Soft power’ has been the subject of much discussion and activity worldwide. The appeal of soft power becomes more relevant in a world facing intransigence due to the hard power of economic incentives and military capabilities. Amrita School of Business, Kochi is organizing an international symposium premised on the complex interconnectedness of the world and the significance of soft power.

The symposium’s technical sessions on strategic advantages of soft power may include theoretical and practitioners’ perspectives on heritage, spirituality and yoga, responsible journalism, arts, sports ecosystem, culture, good governance, values, and trust in society.

The symposium is also expected to uncover new prospects for research and collaboration opportunities in addition to giving a platform for networking with our distinguished speakers and invited guests from all walks of life.
