The Jaguars have come together for their international adventure with SP Jain, to learn and live in three megacities of the world – Singapore, Dubai and Sydney – and become independent global business leaders. The Jaguars will not only get an opportunity to interact with people of different backgrounds but also understand the global nature of business in the most compelling way – through actual exposure to diverse cultures, political beliefs, traditions and technological innovations.
