A wonderful gift from Wharton

May 15, 2007

The Wharton School honoured Dhirubhai by naming the new auditorium after him. Kokilaben cut the blue-ribbon to ceremoniously inaugurate the new auditorium. Dean Harker in his introductory remarks paid a glowing tribute to Ambani as he expressed the school's gratitude for the wonderful gift.

"He was a true pioneer in the development of the Indian economy, opening opportunity to thousands of his fellow citizens through his then-innovative public stock offerings," he said.

"We are honoured to have this outstanding opportunity to pay lasting tributes to Mr Ambani and the companies he built, and the important role he played in India's economic growth, and we are grateful to his son Anil for choosing to remember him in this meaningful way," he said.
