\nSupply Chain Guru Jimmy Anklesaria Funds Rady School\u2019s First Endowed Presidential Chair
\nFaculty chair in innovation and entrepreneurship created through the University of California\u2019s Presidential Match for Endowed Chairs to recruit and retain top-flight faculty
\nHow do supply chain costs impact industry, including Fortune 500 companies?
\n“The answer to that question changed my entire career,” said Jimmy Anklesaria, one of the world\u2019s most sought-after speakers on cost management. “In 1984 when I was in my early 30s, I was a chartered accountant (a CPA) with a law degree, earning an MBA after having worked for a few years as a C-level officer in a conglomerate owned by my family in India. I thought procurement, which was later called supply chain, was a low-level administrative function. Then a professor helped me imagine the financial impact of taking people who have strong backgrounds and are experts in business, finance and manufacturing, and making them responsible for procurement.”
\nAnklesaria\u2019s passion and mission for the last 33 years have been to refocus industry and bring the supply chain profession to the level that it really deserves in an organization\u2014a seat at the CEO\u2019s table. That passion inspired the Anklesaria family to help establish the Jimmy Anklesaria Presidential Chair in Innovation and Entrepreneurship at UC San Diego\u2019s Rady School of Management. Endowed chairs provide a dedicated source of funds, in perpetuity, for the chair holder\u2019s scholarly activities as well as support for faculty salaries and graduate fellowships. The funds provided by the Anklesaria family will be matched by the University of California Presidential Match for Endowed Chairs.
\n“Endowed faculty chairs are vital to UC San Diego\u2019s efforts to attract and retain top-flight faculty,” said Chancellor Pradeep K. Khosla. “Donors like Jimmy Anklesaria ensure excellence on our campus today, and contribute to UC San Diego\u2019s innovation and success for future generations.”
