Download or read book Billions of Entrepreneurs written by Tarun Khanna and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2008-02-01 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China and India are home to one-third of the world's population. And they're undergoing social and economic revolutions that are capturing the best minds--and money--of Western business. In Billions of Entrepreneurs, Tarun Khanna examines the entrepreneurial forces driving China's and India's trajectories of development. He shows where these trajectories overlap and complement one another--and where they diverge and compete. He also reveals how Western companies can participate in this development. Through intriguing comparisons, the author probes important differences between China and India in areas such as information and transparency, the roles of capital markets and talent, public and private property rights, social constraints on market forces, attitudes toward expatriates abroad and foreigners at home, entrepreneurial and corporate opportunities, and the importance of urban and rural communities. He explains how these differences will influence China's and India's future development, what the two countries can learn from each other, and how they will ultimately reshape business, politics, and society in the world around them. Engaging and incisive, this book is a critical resource for anyone working in China or India or planning to do business in these two countries.
Download or read book Indovation written by T. Birtchnell and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How should we understand the many reports that poverty is the mother of innovation in India? What has the role of austerity been in the development of India's knowledge economy? In this critical study of Indian innovation, or 'Indovation', Thomas Birtchnell explores how the complex mobilities of 'globals' with stakes in India have transformed discourses and imaginaries about innovation in the region. He adopts a critical eye to the notion of Indovation by focusing on the various circuits of globals where India's knowledge economy is concentrated: expertise, entrepreneurship and community. Birtchnell traces the various discourses and counter-discourses around an Indian way of working and illustrates how differences in the international dimensions of austerity allow India's knowledge economy to prosper.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Current condition of each citizen, the society, and the nation are the result of a deeply complex history. But what we know from history books, especially academic textbooks, are constructs based on the narratives of political powers, colonists, and outdated socioeconomic analysts. The time has come to know and understand our true history from fresh and updated perspectives. The subject of this book is how foreign ideologies and forces Christian, Islamic, and later colonists, western and Marxists' profound and long-term influence have impacted India, her society, and people. With a computer science back- ground, Kanchan Banerjee makes this remarkable and significant contribution, attempting to depict the current era with unique and lively storytelling using carefully studied evidence, logical deduction, and analysis. He has given detailed and comprehensive descriptions and assessments from pre-Islamic Arabia's history, foreign attacks and invasions of the Huns, the Turks to the Islamic rule and occupation in Delhi, and the British colonial and imperial atrocities. How did the crash and fall of a great ancient civilization happen? How has it been wounded the body and soul of a nation to break into several pieces? And what is the way to change the direction to the path of recovery and revival? This book is an effort to find the answers to these questions from our true history. If we know our past, we can change our future as well.

Book excerpt: Have you heard about The American Dream that states "Life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each, according to their ability and achievement, regardless of their social class or circumstances of birth?" 244 years after independence, The American Dream still continues to inspire the nation, holds its people together, gets everyone pushing in the same direction and makes the country what it is today. Besides America, our neighbour, China has a "Chinese Dream," which promotes prosperity, collective effort and national glory. Even smaller countries like Qatar and New Zealand have also stated their national dreams. But what about India? Do we have a dream that can push us in the same direction and that can inspire you, me and a billion others? Yes, India had a dream in the past - a dream of an independent country, but that dream ended after we achieved it. What about now? Do we still have an Indian dream that can inspire us into action? Yes, there is a new kind of dream that has started emerging from every nook and corner across the nation. Inside The Self Made Indian Dream, you will discover what this new Indian dream is all about and how this new Indian dream is driving the new Indian middle class to achieve their own version of success in a society where upward mobility is increasingly possible for anyone regardless of their age, gender, caste, education or background.
Download or read book Chasing Innovation written by Lilly Irani and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vivid look at how India has developed the idea of entrepreneurial citizens as leaders mobilizing society and how people try to live that promise Can entrepreneurs develop a nation, serve the poor, and pursue creative freedom, all while generating economic value? In Chasing Innovation, Lilly Irani shows the contradictions that arise as designers, engineers, and businesspeople frame development and governance as opportunities to innovate. Irani documents the rise of "entrepreneurial citizenship" in India over the past seventy years, demonstrating how a global ethos of development through design has come to shape state policy, economic investment, and the middle class in one of the world’s fastest-growing nations. Drawing on her own professional experience as a Silicon Valley designer and nearly a decade of fieldwork following a Delhi design studio, Irani vividly chronicles the practices and mindsets that hold up professional design as the answer to the challenges of a country of more than one billion people, most of whom are poor. While discussions of entrepreneurial citizenship promise that Indian children can grow up to lead a nation aspiring to uplift the poor, in reality, social, economic, and political structures constrain whose enterprise, which hopes, and which needs can be seen as worthy of investment. In the process, Irani warns, powerful investors, philanthropies, and companies exploit citizens' social relations, empathy, and political hope in the quest to generate economic value. Irani argues that the move to recast social change as innovation, with innovators as heroes, frames others—craftspeople, workers, and activists—as of lower value, or even dangers to entrepreneurial forms of development. With meticulous historical context and compelling stories, Chasing Innovation lays bare how long-standing power hierarchies such as class, caste, language, and colonialism continue to shape opportunity in a world where good ideas supposedly rule all.
Download or read book One Vision Billion Dreams written by Santosha K. Nayak and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2020-11-26 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is all about the economic empowerment of the common man. More than 80% of the people are under sheer darkness and away from real development. When we talk and see of development, it is less than 20 % of the country. Historically and systematically large sections of the people were kept under darkness. And the trend hasn’t seen light for quite some time despite all the efforts from many eminent persons from different walks of life. Perhaps, they all used only their minds and lacked in their heart while trying to find solutions. The author in this book has attempted afresh some steps with a bottom up approach to achieve real development of all, especially the left-out 80%; and achieve comprehensive economic development across every nook and corner of the country. This book talks about Unique Natural Endowment Theory, Graded Self-sufficient Model of Regional Economic Development; and analysed the structural needs in each sector of the economy so as to address the persistent on the ground problems. At present, entrepreneurial knowledge is at a low level among the larger mass; and challenges to micro entrepreneurship are high. The book also talks about entrepreneurial spirit and processes for the common man. This book discovers ways to reach new heights of growth and development in New India. This book has dreams for every common man and tries to find ways to materialise the individual dreams of the billion plus people of India. That's why this book is - One Vision for a Billion Dreams.
Download or read book Boom Country written by Alan Rosling and published by Hachette India. This book was released on 2017-05-20 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Boom Country?, Alan Rosling, entrepreneur and strategic advisor in India for over 35 years, explores an unmistakable and profound change that is underway in the Indian business landscape. A fresh wave of enterprise and start-ups; rapid advancements in technology; government reform; and recently developed pools of risk capital, he holds, are contributing increasingly to a massive expansion in new business ? all of it underpinned by a deep social change, a willingness to `do things differently?, especially among the young. Drawing upon his own experiences and more than 100 interviews with Indian entrepreneurs ? representing traditional leading business houses (Tata, Mahindra and Godrej), established first-generation entrepreneurs (Sunil Mittal, Kishore Biyani and Narayana Murthy, among others) and new-generation start-ups (including Sachin Bansal, Bhavish Aggarwal and Vijay Shekhar Sharma) ? as well as forces of the government, Rosling provides an incisive and in-depth analysis of the opportunities and challenges, both traditional and contemporary, of doing business in India. Yet, the growing uncertainty of global trends and India?s own record of under-performing despite its massive potential, lead him to one vital question: Can the current upsurge in entrepreneurial activity ? imperfect and early as it may be ? really reshape India?s economy and propel it towards becoming a true boom country for new enterprise?
