Introduction
Theme: Building Sustainable Indian Multinationals: Agenda for Action
The newly emerging economic order brings new opportunities and challenges for businesses across the world. Many Indian organizations today are experiencing the push to explore markets outside India. There are enough examples of companies building strong domestic operations through constant innovation and building on their core competencies. Can such organizations leverage these strengths and capabilities to achieve competitive global operations? Business beyond borders involves more than just setting up operations outside or acquiring foreign companies or getting access to international capital markets. The National Competition for Management Students (NCMS) this year explores how Indian organizations effectively manage and integrate global operations. There are various dimensions of taking Indian organizations global such as managing a global workforce, leveraging global supply chains, targeting a wider range of customers across the globe, effectively deploying technologies and processes, among others. As drawing up a strategy for managing organizations of tomorrow and effectively looking beyond India is becoming an absolute must, the management students this year deliberate on: What is the change that organizations of today must bring to succeed in this globalized world.

What are some good practices that Indian organizations can adapt from successful multi-nationals with vast global presence? Is there a framework that organizations of today create and adhere to, in order to manage diversity while expanding their global footprints?
