On August 13th, 2008, the US Commercial Service and Federal Express are hosting a seminar that will highlight the India market. This is an excellent opportunity for US companies to develop a better understanding of prospects in India.
The Indian market, with its one billion plus population, presents lucrative and diverse opportunities for U.S. exporters with the right products, services, and commitment. India’s requirements for equipments and services for major sectors such as energy, environmental, healthcare, high-tech, infrastructure, transportation, and defense will exceed tens of billions of dollars in the mid-term as the Indian economy further globalizes and expands.
India’s GDP, growing at 8.7% (for 2007-08), makes it one of the fastest growing economies in the world and the second fastest in Asia. India has potential for a sustained growth of 8-10% for the next couple of years. Now is the time for U.S. companies to enter the rising Indian market.
