Tips for effective business with India
Key to success in India investment
Companies conduct research and on-site visits to better understand how people use products or services, market pricing mechanisms, user preferences, and how products and services can be delivered. The key to success for successful managerial decisions are optimized though smooth communication and through effective networks.
Issues of Japanese companies in India
Japanese companies are inclined to depend on Japanese companies and business partners (Nikkei Kigyo), collaborating with each other to achieve results. However, at times, this is a narrow approach that can be less effective, and it can also lead to too much co-dependency. India may require a broader and more direct approach.
INdia business case studies
Case Studies are important to highlight the reasons behind the most successful business ventures established between India and Japan. It is just as important to analyze business ventures that failed and were not so successful. We can learn a lot from past cases and failed business strategies to assess new business opportunities. It is important to learn and make efforts to not repeat the same mistakes.
