Tata Consultancy to host Selling to India conference on March 6

On March 6, Cincinnati's Tata Consultancy North American Delivery Headquarters will host the US Department of Commerce in a presentation entitled: Selling to India:  Opportunities Await.

As home to the world's second largest population and a rapidly growing middle class, opportunities for business in India are seemingly infinite.  Cincinnati corporations stand to benefit from this growth.

"There are great opportunities, but it is important for Cincininati firms to do the research to find out if selling to India fits their strategy," says Kara Sweeney, international trade specialist, U.S. Commercial Service – Cincinnati.   

Indian social customs – particularly within their caste system – as well as cultural differences with regard to business protocols and a slow decision making style are a few of the numerous considerations that should be understood before shipping products across the globe.

This is where Selling to India serves as an invaluable tool to local businesses.

The program features an impressive line-up of business leaders and India experts speaking to the financial, legal and cultural considerations necessary to understand  within the Indian market.

Presenters include Consul General of India-New York, Prabhu Dayal; Dr. Abdul Quader Shaikh, Senior International Economist, US Commercial Service, US Department of Commerce; and Abid Ali Z. Neemuchwala, Vice President of Tata Consultancy Services.

"By attending our March 6th event, local businesses can find export resources to help them determine if India is the right market for their company and provide the tools to assist them in positioning themselves for success," Sweeney says.
