India is expected to overtake China as the country with the most population in 2025, with 1,5 billion people. India's population is young, the middle class is growing and consumption is constantly increasing. Under the Modi government, India is planning major reform projects in the areas of transport infrastructure, digitalization and modernization of industry, some of which have already been implemented.

There are particularly good market opportunities in the environmental technology, automotive and mechanical engineering, chemical industry and renewable energy sectors. At the same time, one must know that India is a heterogeneous country with significant linguistic and cultural differences and often non-transparent framework conditions.

Anyone who dares to enter the Indian market should be very well prepared. The right strategy for entering the market, special features of the business environment and dealing with Indian partners are just as important as knowledge of sales structures and tax-relevant knowledge. Current issues such as the uniform GST (Goods and Services Tax) and the aftermath of the cash reform are also relevant.

Among other things, our experts will speak on the topics of sales and human resources in India:

  • Our senior consultant Thomas Brown reports about Sales development and optimization in India: How and through which channels does sales work in India with a sales partner or subsidiary?
  • WB department head Werner Heesen shares his decades of experience in the field Leadership, management and control of India activities: How can you successfully control business processes and manage organizations efficiently?
