Hi,

It is quite possible to enroll in for Executive MBA in IIMs. Many IIMs have started the EMBA course in the name of Executive Post Graduate Program in Management (EPGP/PGPEX) and other such names. This course is really meant for Executives and business owner, thanks to the flexible schedule of the course. The classes will be held on the weekly basis, probably Saturday-Sunday or 4 to 5 days in a row every month; but still many IIMs like IIM Ahmadabad and Calcutta, etc. have made the course full-time and residential. The very purpose of the flexible schedule is that the students enrolled here are executives and the working professional so obviously they would not be able to attend the classes like an academic student owing to other responsibilities which they have. In the case of you, as you said you own a Startup so of course, you have been shouldering many such activities while running a startup. The course will definitely help you have new skill sets which you can implement in your organization to achieve what you are aspiring for.
