Jaswinder Ahuja, Corporate Vice President and Managing Director Cadence India
Abstract
Globalization is the process of connecting the world’s people with respect to cultural, economical, political, theological and environmental aspects of their lives and creates a web of financial, social, economical and cultural interdependencies. Globalization in business is becoming pervasive and is at the heart of competitiveness of enterprises. Within the high technology sector, the key drivers of globalization are access to key talent and access to new markets. A key focus for this is in the emerging regions of India, Greater China and Eastern Europe including Russia.
This talk will speak to some of the challenges of globalization and lessons learnt in building and effectively managing a global organization across these regions and will propose frameworks for approaching the globalization process in a manner that maximizes success.
