Inhaltsangabe

This book is the first strategic guide for multi-national corporations (MNCs)who are contemplating expanding into both China and India. Gupta and Wang explain how many MNCs view China and India solely from the lens of off-shoring and cost-reduction, and focusing their marketing strategies on only the top 5-10% of the population. This is a missed opportunity. China and India are the only two countries that constitute four realities that are strategically crucial for the global enterprise: Both provide mega-markets for almost every product and service Both have platforms that will dramatically reduce the company's global cost structure Both have platforms that will significantly boost the company's global technology and innovation base Both are springboards for the mergence of new fearsome global competitors. This book aims to shed light on the brutal competition for markets and resources in China and India as well as lays out the strategic action implications for those companies who want to emerge as the global players of tomorrow.

Aus dem Klappentext

Getting Chinaand India Right

Many multinational corporations think of China and India largely for off-shoring and cost reduction and limit their marketing to the wealthiest few people. With such shortsightedness, the opportunity of the century will pass them by, argue business strategists Anil K. Gupta and Haiyan Wang. To help business leaders develop robust global strategies in the age of China and India, the authors uncover the surprising range of hidden opportunities and challenges presented by these emerging giants. They reveal the secrets to capturing the hearts, minds, and wallets of consumers there and to leveraging the complementary strengths of each country to achieve global dominance.

With their enormous populations and rapid economic growth, China and India are the only two countries to feature four different realities, each strategically crucial to the future of any global enterprise:

• Megamarkets for almost every productand service

• Platforms to dramatically reduce a company's global cost structure

• Potential hubs to transform a company's global technology and innovation base

• Springboards for the emergence of new fearsome global competitors

Organizations that want to build effective strategies for China and India must address each of these realities head on, just as GE, Yum Brands, Adidas, Nokia, IBM, Accenture, Microsoft, Cisco, and many other pioneering companies the authors describe have done. Shedding light on the brutal competition for today's markets and resources in China and India, this game-changing book lays out a strategic action plan for organizations that want to emerge as global leaders in tomorrow's marketplace.
