Mumbai : Dr. Diwan Rahul Nanda, Global Chairman – TOPSGRUP has been

granted the coveted membership of the London Chapter of Young Presidents’ Organization (YPO). With this membership, Dr. Nanda has joined the league of YPO’s other distinguished members, including Lord Karan Bilimoria, Founder and Chairman, Cobra Beer; Josh Berman, Co-founder, MySpace; John Donahoe, President and CEO, eBay and Josh Silverman, CEO, Skype.

Young Presidents’ Organization is a not‐for‐profit and global network of over 17,000 young chief executives in more than 100 countries. YPO members have access to unique experiences, world‐class resources, alliances with top learning institutions and specialized networks that help them enhance their business, community and personal leadership.

Speaking about this membership, Dr. Diwan Rahul Nanda, Global Chairman, TOPSGRUP, said “I am honoured to become a member of the prestigious YPO (London). In today’s complex, competitive and interconnected world, changes that affect your business can come from anywhere, so it’s vital to be well-connected seamlessly throughout the world. Besides, it is a fertile ground to learn about ideas that can help to accelerate the growth of my companies and enhance their competitiveness. With a trusted platform of business leaders who are committed to one other in more than 100 countries, it’s easy to see the incredible advantage of solving an unfamiliar problem with two phone calls rather than spending hundreds of hours and thousands of pounds trying to research the issue”.

YPO membership is by ‘invitation only’ for which the candidate has to meet multiple and complex eligibility requirements established by the YPO International Board. After fulfilling the minimum requisite, the candidate is required to go through a rigorous personal face-to-face evaluation by members of their local chapter. YPO consistently values a peer network and trusted mentors, the importance of ongoing education, and the need for a ‘safe haven’ where issues can be aired in an environment of confidentiality. YPO provides members with instant access to their local business peers. The chapter experience takes on an added dimension when members connect regionally and internationally through online discussions, global conference calls, networks, groups, industry round-tables, presidents’ seminars, leadership summits and much more. Whether a young leader heads an entrepreneurial startup, a family-owned business or a multinational company, the YPO network provides the advantage of a powerful connection to 17,000 peers.

“I am equally confident that this YPO membership will help me gain entrepreneurial insights into successful global business practices that will help me make significant and measurable impact to my organisation and to the lives of thousands of employees and customers who trust us with their future, assets and businesses,” he further added.
