Overview

The GSB is the primary vehicle for coordinating and managing student activities and initiatives, both academic and extracurricular. It represents the interest of PGP students in the Indian School of Business (ISB) administration. The association therefore gives its input to enrich the School’s curriculum. GSB members are elected from the student body after they are about two months into the programme. GSB Core representatives prepare a common minimum platform at the beginning of their tenure and generate regular status reports on their progress and initiatives.

Parthsharma

Parth Sharma

GSB President

Parth is a graduate of Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) Varanasi, where he served as a Student Parliamentarian and was conferred the Institute Day Gold Medal. Selected by the Government of India as its Youth Delegate to South Korea, he also visited Stanford and Harvard during his undergraduate years- gaining firsthand exposure to the standards of leadership, excellence, and community-building expected at world-class institutions- a perspective he now brings to his presidency of the Graduate Student Body at Indian School of Business.

Before ISB, Parth worked across two very different worlds - leading large-scale infrastructure projects as Assistant General Manager at RCC Developers, and driving US strategy and growth at Simplismart.ai, an Accel-backed AI startup, in Founder’s Office. An ISB Merit Scholar, he believes leadership is ultimately measured by ownership, empathy, and execution under pressure. Beyond work, Parth is an avid couch surfer who has stayed with locals across 10+ countries, a swimmer, and an organ donation advocate serving as an Ambassador for India’s largest organ donation NGO- MOHAN Foundation. He takes initiative, gets things done, and lives by the mantra: "Do what you can, with what you have, where you are".
