A presentation after two weeks in India with Insead business school. "The overstretched 19th century elephant lumbers toward anarchy, while the 21st century mind ebraces chaotic democracy. Yes 1 billion strong are rising to the mainstream, the brain drain reversed course, as the home country gains the valley's cream, of the top crop. But the taxis are stuck in traffic, and the governments are slow to change. And the youth consumers of nokia's futures are breathing pollution and more of the same. India Shining, as we walk to the beat, of people surving, with what they sell on the street. India Shiining, yes the weather is sweet. People are climbing, while the West is asleep." [Mas+detalle]
