MISSION STATEMENT:

The South Asian Business Forum (SABF) provides a foundation of support for students at the Yale School of Management who want to participate and lead initiatives related to South Asia. We define South Asia as the region of Asia currently including India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Burma, Bangladesh, Bhutan and other regions in close proximity. Most activities are focused on the cultural, social, or business aspects of South Asia; however, the SABF board encourages members to take an active role in planning their own events for members in order to encompass the broad interests of many students.

ANNUAL EVENTS:

·         Speaker Series: Each year different leaders servicing the South Asian Community are brought in to SOM to speak to current students.

·         International Month: The SABF coordinates a presentation on South Asia, including food, dance, and music from the different regions of South Asia. This event provides a great opportunity for SOM students to get a flavor for South Asian culture.

·         Social Events: The SABF coordinates movie nights, bhangra dances, cricket matches, parties and many other fun events throughout the year.
