Centre for India & Global Business

Innovation in India and China

How to Create Value from Emerging Markets

The Centre for India & Global Business was proud to partner with the Marketing Science Institute (MSI) and Blood Orange Media to host a seminar that explored the rise of India and China as both fast-growing global markets and world-class sources of innovation.

Even as the world sinks into a global recession, the Indian and Chinese economies are expected to continue to grow, on the strength of their vast domestic markets. But many Western companies struggle to devise the right business model(s) and marketing strategies that can help them penetrate and succeed in both giant Asian markets. This conference explored the best practices for innovating and winning in the Indian and Chinese markets, and discussed how the globalisation of Indian and Chinese firms are reshaping entire industries - from manufacturing to retail to film and art.
