Future-Proofing Retail Leadership for the Consumer of 2030

Dr. Parimal Merchant

Director, Global Family Managed Business Program · SP Jain School of Global Management
Nearly five decades of expertise. 5,000+ businesses mentored through exactly this kind of generational shift. As Director of the Global Family Managed Business Program at SP Jain School of Global Management, he has spent his career at the intersection of two worlds that don't always speak the same language: the instinct-led, relationship-first operating style of a founder generation, and the tech-driven, data-informed expectations of the market that generation's successors now have to serve. His work bridges that gap for a living — helping family businesses keep what makes them trustworthy while rebuilding what makes them competitive.

In this masterclass, Dr. Merchant will unpack the strategic frameworks required to align traditional business models with the values, technology and behavior of the Consumer in 2030, so that alliance businesses walk out with a plan, not just inspiration — built to stay agile, culturally relevant, and ready to scale.

The Anatomy of Scaling — Honoring Roots, Building Empires

Mr. A. Baburao & Shashank Anumula

Founder & Next-Gen Leader · Café Niloufer, Hyderabad
One family, two generations — trust and quality built by the father, modern systems and expansion driven by the son. Mr. A. Baburao built Hyderabad's iconic Café Niloufer from the ground up on a foundation of consistency, quality and deep-rooted trust — the kind that turns a neighbourhood shop into a city landmark. His son, Shashank Anumula, took that foundation and did what every second generation eventually must: introduced modern systems, brand premiumization and exponential retail expansion, without breaking the trust his father spent decades earning.

In their fireside chat, father and son will speak candidly about what it actually takes to make that handover work: what to protect, what to change, and how to know the difference.
