The UK India Business Council and Harvard Business Review invite you to a high level discussion on the new Indian business landscape featuring Ravi Venkatesan HBS '92, former Chairman of Microsoft India, and how British enterprises can effectively harness the incredible potential within it.
For the first time in three decades, an Indian political party, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has surpassed all expectations and won a majority in India’s Lok Sabh, India’s equivalent to the House of Commons. Not only does this create a stable government with an undisputable mandate for change, but also, it allows Indian policy makers to adopt a long-term perspective when making economic and investment decisions.
Most Indians are jubilant, the stock market has shot up by 20 percent, and, in the week after the results
were announced, the Indian rupee appreciated the most among 78 currencies that Bloomberg tracks.
As a result of this seismic result, the landscape for investment in India has never looked more appealing.
Panellists include Ravi Venkatesan HBS'92, former Chairman of Microsoft India and Cummins India and author of
‘Conquering the Chaos: Win in India, Win Everywhere’ and leading figures in the UK-India Trade
relationship.
This promises to be a fascinating event and as a special one-off offer, all guests will receive a complimentary copy of ‘Conquering the Chaos: Win in India, Win Everywhere’ upon registering.
