The Young Leader's Forum (formerly YEW) was setup by the Indian Merchants’ Chamber in 2001. Our mission is to create a platform for young Indian leaders to build a network, grow and realize their own potential. Through cutting-edge events, forums, site visits and workshops the forum aspires to provide opportunities and expose young Indians to a cross section of leadership issues. The YLF aims to be the youth platform most known for identifying and empowering leaders. The YLF greatly benefits from its association with the prestigious Indian Merchants’ Chamber. In many ways, the YLF's new emphasis on 'Indian leadership' is consistent with the IMC's rich legacy of engaging and attracting great patriots such as Mahatma Gandhi and GD Birla as its members. Post-independence, the chamber continues its association with dynamic personalities who have played a vital role in India’s transformation. Pandit Nehru, JRD Tata, Atal Behari Vajpayee and Dr. APJ Kalam have all at some point graced the chamber with their presence and thought-provoking addresses. There are several advantages of being a YLF member, such as: - Join something that will work towards progress: India’s and thus yours. - Meet, interact and network with young, dynamic individuals who are committed towards change - Develop leadership skills - Be part of a 110-year-old institution - Attend workshops, forums, site visits and leadership events, seminars etc - Attend all IMC events - Use of our world class conference rooms strategically located in our own building, downtown, opposite Churchgate station , Mumbai at a discounted rate. - Access to the IMC Reference library We are looking for motivated young professionals such as yourself to be a part of the YLF and build a platform that is beneficial for both you and your country.
