Industrial opportunities in North-East India

If I were to be rich,
If I were to be sucessful,
If I were to be grateful,
I would return to this wonderful land,
and give back whatever it had given me
to make me what I am today

It has been a long while since I gave this presentation. Hope that my readers get to know about the industrial scenario of the North-East from this presentation. The document can be downloaded from the following link- http://www.scribd.com/doc/2462921/Industrial-Opportunities-in-the-Northeast

Good Morning North-East

It seems good days are back at the doorsteps of this once forgotten land of ours. Companies seem to have taken a new step in selecting MBA students from far fledged IIM-Shillong, located in Meghalaya, North-East India.

A delighted Director of the new IIM, Prof Ashoke K Dutta said, "When we approached the companies, initially they were hesitant. The challenge was to convince them as to how the products would be of help to them."

It seems being from IIM itself is not an advantage after all. The students as well as the administration have to also position themselves to grab the attention of the Corporates. Proper positioning must also be done to convince the biggies that the students have the basic skills in them to hold back major repercussions during the inverted curve period.

What the North-East needs is to make itself open for more opportunities pour in. Conditions like extremism are still prevalent and fresh in the minds of investors. Companies must convey their message to the people of the North-East that instead of feeling insecure, more opportunities would be coming at their doorsteps.

Let us hope this year ushers in a new spirit of hope to the region.
