New Delhi, Dec 10 (KNN) US India Business Council (USIBC) today hosted a webinar for US small and medium enterprises on the ABC’s of doing business in India.
“This interactive webinar on doing business in India for SME’s will provide a clear-eyed 2015 overview of the business-opportunity landscape for small and mid-size American companies seeking to do business in India, and practical advice as to how best to get started,” an official notification said.
Calling US SMEs to invest in India, USIBC said the time has never been better than now for entry into India.
“India, with its population of 1.3 billion people, an increasingly affluent middle class, an activist new business-friendly government, and a revived appetite for investment, is again an ideal market for internationally ambitious companies to do business. Many large global multinational organizations have long been active and successful in India.
Increasingly, however new opportunities across many sectors have opened for smaller and mid-sized international companies. Many American, British, and German SMEs are already successfully selling their products and services into India,” it said.
The webinar, led by veteran US-India cross-border business experts provided a clear-eyed 2015 overview of the business-opportunity landscape for small and mid-size American companies seeking to do business in India, and practical advice as to how best to get started.
