The latest in the line of accomplishments is the 'University of Corporate Excellence', a world-class Universityconceived on a state- of-the-art format, in the background of mounting global corporate need and leadershipvacuum in macro-management. The UCE proposes to harness the power of law, technology and management tocreate a unique model of corporate strategy where a technocrat is as much a manager as a corporate lawyer. Similarly, a manager is as much a lawyer and techno-savvy processional as a technocrat. A lawyer who passesout from the portals of UCE is seen a techno-savvy professional with a penchant for management. The complex underpinnings of the venture have been worked out conceptually by Kellogg think tank Prof. BalaBalachandran (Founder of Chennai's Great Lake School of Management), Dubai-Kolkata based builder-philanthrope RavindraChamaria and Dr. P.K.Mishra. The project is well on its way with full backstopping arrangement under the vigilanteye of the forward looking Government of Odisha. The Rs. 600 Crores project when completed will be theManagement hub of the East.

Infinity Knowledge city; the signature project of Infinity InfoTech Parks Ltd, is a diversified conglomerate withinterests in Infrastructure, IT, Educational Complexes and Townships. Moreover, an educational entrepreneur willnot have to invest in creating a host of facilities like sports complex, residential accommodation, shopping,medical, entertainment and other essential services for education viz. library, labs, research centers, conventioncomplex, etc. as they would be available through shared services provided by Infinity Knowledge City. Infinity Knowledge City would be world's first ever green "university". Since much green is not available within city limits,Infinity Knowledge City would be located within drivable distance from cities, where land is plenty,affordable andgreen. Dr Mishra is serving as the president of Infinity Knowledge City Projects Pvt. Ltd to support IIPL to createsuch knowledge economies in India and other countries.
