TRIMA 2019 – the Annual Management Convention of Trivandrum Management Association

The Annual Management Convention of Trivandrum Management Association was held on 21st and 22nd February 2019 at Vivanta by Taj, Trivandrum.

Individuals create a society and with a high degree of value create a good society leading to a better world to live 

Why values are important -  Values like empathy, tolerance make people more responsible citizens, Values are important for making the right decision, Values make people more conscious of their acts. With this ideology in mind, TMA has identified the following as the sub-themes for TRIMA 2019 : 

 

Value based Governance - Legal frame work, Administration, Media 

Value based services - Universal Health Care and Education

Value creation in Industry - Manufacturing, Start Ups
