Bengaluru: Xavier Institute of Management & Entrepreneurship (XIME) inaugurated its Bloomberg Xperiential Lab, becoming one of only 30 educational institutions in India recognized as a Bloomberg Experiential Learning Partner (ELP).

The facility is designed to nurture finance professionals with real-world learning experiences, offering access to Bloomberg's financial technology, analytics, real-time data, global news, and simulation tools.

Inaugurating the lab, C.J. George, Founder of Geojit Financial Services, said, “XIME students already demonstrate strong business understanding. With hands-on training in the Bloomberg Lab, their skills in financial analytics and market dynamics will be even sharper.”

Prof. J. Philip, Principal Founder of XIME, noted, “The philosophy of knowing-doing-being guides our education model. This lab enables active decision-making in a professional-grade ecosystem - a game changer for employability and career growth.”

The facility allows students to manage mock portfolios, participate in international trading simulations, analyze live markets, and pursue globally recognized certifications such as Bloomberg Finance Fundamentals, ESG, Bloomberg Market Concepts (BMC), and Spreadsheet Analysis.
