32 Years of Hospitality Innovation: IIHM Salutes Students, Alumni, and AI on Foundation Day

Bengaluru - As the International Institute of Hotel Management (IIHM) celebrated its 32nd Foundation Day with fervour across 16 campuses, Founder and Chairman Dr. Suborno Bose delivered an inspiring message that underscored the institution’s pioneering role in merging Artificial Intelligence (AI) with hospitality education.

“We exist because of our students,” said Dr. Bose, addressing the IIHM family. “Their hunger for knowledge and enthusiasm for innovation give us the strength to stay ahead.” Applauding their response to the institute’s AI-led vision, he called students the driving force behind IIHM’s journey from a single campus to an internationally recognized institution.

Leading the AI Revolution in Hospitality

IIHM has introduced a game-changing tool—NamAIste HospitalityGPT, the world’s first generative AI knowledge engine tailored exclusively for the hospitality sector. It provides real-time insights, industry trends, and smart decision-making support for students, professionals, and stakeholders.

“This is not just an academic tool. It’s a global solution,” said Dr. Bose, announcing the signing of a Knowledge Sharing Declaration with 50 nations during the prestigious Young Chef Olympiad (YCO).

Alumni and Industry – The Twin Pillars of IIHM

Dr. Bose emphasized the strength of IIHM’s alumni network, with 40% working abroad and many in leadership roles across India. He also lauded the hospitality industry’s symbiotic partnership with IIHM, especially through the International College of Distinguished Fellows, which offers internships, placements, and mentorship to students.

“The industry has welcomed our graduates with open arms,” he said. “Their continued trust in IIHM is our biggest validation.”
