Hotelier Dilip Puri recently launched the Indian School of Hospitality at a glittering event
Applause resounded through the ballroom of The Westin Gurgaon as Dilip Puri, veteran hotelier and former MD and regional VP of Starwood Hotels and Resorts South Asia, took a bow and made his way off the stage.
Puri finally lifted the veil off his long anticipated entrepreneurial venture, the Indian School of Hospitality (ISH). A glittering group of the industry’s thought leaders were in attendance to witness the launch – many of them founder-investors, and members of the board and advisory council of ISH. Together, they had all come to show their support for Puri’s vision of reimagining hospitality education within India.
During his presentation, Puri revealed that the idea for ISH came to him when he admitted his younger son to Ecole hôtelière de Lausanne (EHL), the world’s oldest and top ranked hospitality management higher education institution. Witnessing firsthand the quality of education and infrastructure in place there, he saw the opportunity to bring these global standards to India. Through the creation and implementation of a future conscious curriculum, ISH aims to adapt a new form of pedagogy that will transform the way hospitality education is both perceived and delivered.
