Even in the midst of the current global crisis, in which every major economy will experience a recession, China and India are still projected to grow at five-plus percent. China and India: not just places to outsource or reduce costs, but megamarkets offering enormous opportunities for companies to emerge as the global leaders of tomorrow. Yet, very few companies understand what China and India mean for their future. As the economic center of gravity continues to shift from developed to emerging economies like China and India, companies that continue to view these countries as peripheral rather than central to their global strategy will be left behind.
