Description:

India is rapidly evolving from an exporter of tech innovation to a consumer of tech innovation. With an economy growing at 7.5%, Indian companies are eager to transform their products, services, processes, and even business models. Pioneering Indian firms like Tata Motors and ICICI Bank are already set new global benchmarks for product and service performance. This teleconference outlines Indian firms' multidimensional innovation needs and illustrates how tech vendors (both Indian and MNC IT vendors) can effectively address their Indian clients' complex innovation requirements. Using real-life case studies, we explain how technology providers can cultivate intimacy with their Indian clients and engage them in collaborative innovation partnerships. We also explore how tech vendors could nurture and leverage local partner ecosystems to maximize value delivery to their Indian clients.

Agenda:

• What types of business innovation are Indian firms expecting from tech vendors?
• What are the unique business innovation requirements of various Indian verticals?
• Who is the "innovation solution buyer" within Indian firms? What message resonates best with him/her?
• How should tech vendors organize themselves to effectively meet Indian firms' innovation needs?
• Who is best positioned to help Indian firms innovate: Indian IT vendors or tech MNCs?

Vendors mentioned: Accenture, Capgemini, Cisco Systems, HP, IBM, Infosys, Microsoft, SAP, TCS, and Wipro.
