Former Indian American banker Victor Menezes has contributed $3 million toward a convention center named after at IITMumbai. Menezes, an electrical engineering graduate of IIT Mumbai has contributed the funds to IIT Bombay Heritage Fund.

According to Menezes, the new convention center will be a catalyst for collaborative discussion and development across the institute. The center will have a state-of-the art auditorium with a capacity of 300, a seminar hall, classrooms and meeting rooms. In addition, the top two floors will be occupied by the Manuel Menezes Center Civil Engineering Annex.

The foundation stone laying ceremony for the center was held recently at the Powai campus. According to IIT Mumbai Director Ashok Misra, the center will be functional within a year, in time for the start of IIT Mumbais Golden Jubilee Celebrations.
