Firms from emerging economies such as China and India have been internationalizing briskly for about a decade. In this opening seminar of a six-part series based on the book Emerging Multinationals in Emerging Markets (Cambridge University Press, 2009), Professor Ramamurti, co-editor of the book, will explore the competitive advantages these firms enjoy and the strategies they use to “go global.” He will discuss how the rise of emerging-market multinationals is affecting the strategy and performance of Western firms. He will illustrate his points with Indian examples, but will occasionally bring in examples from other emerging markets.

PROFESSOR RAMAMURTI, featured speaker and architect of the webinar series, is Distinguished Professor of International Business and Strategy at Northeastern University and the founding director of its Center for Emerging Markets. He has been a visiting professor at Harvard Business School, MIT Sloan School, CEIBS-China, and the Wharton School, among others. He has published four books and over 75 articles in leading management journals. His consulting clients have included the board of the World Bank, the United Nations, USAID, the governments of more than a dozen countries, and many private firms in the US and abroad. Professor Ramamurti received his MBA from the Indian Institute of Management (Ahmedabad), where he graduated at the top of his class, and his DBA in International business from Harvard Business school.

Around the World in Asian Days: Getting China & India Right
Dr. Anil K Gupta & Haiyan Wang - Authors of Getting China and India Right.

The central premise underlying this global virtual seminar is that being present in China and India is not the same thing as getting China and India right.

Most CEOs and their senior colleagues are well aware that the world’s economic center of gravity is shifting from the developed to the emerging economies, in particular China and India. Notwithstanding this general awareness, very few truly grasp the magnitude and pace of change and the multi-faceted nature of the new reality. Some of the most common mistakes include: viewing China and India solely from the lens of off-shoring and cost reduction, building marketing strategies that are centered around just the rich cities and the top 5-10 percent of the population, naiveté regarding the choice of local partners, and treating these two countries as peripheral rather than core to the company’s global strategy.

Putting in place the right strategies, as outlined in this webinar, is crucial to leveraging these economies for global advantage.

Dr. Anil K Gupta is the author of over seventy papers and four books: Getting China and India Right, The Quest for Global Dominance, Smart Globalization, and Global Strategy and Organization. He is the Ralph J. Tyser Professor of Strategy and Organization at the Robert H. Smith School of Business, The University of Maryland at College Park.

Haiyan Wang is Managing Partner of China India Institute. She is the co-author of two books: Getting China and India Right and The Quest for Global Dominance-2nd Edition. Her opinion pieces have appeared in top international media such as The Wall Street Journal, The Economic Times, China Daily, and The Times of India.

This Webinar is brought to you by the India, China & America Institute, a non-profit research institute working to foster research and dissemination of knowledge on the rise of China and India and their impact on global markets, global resources and geopolitics of the world.

The only cost is your long distance phone call to dial-in.
