Made in India
In the 90s, India became a world class computer outsourcing centre. Peter Day returns to the country 16 years after his first visit to find out what is driving business today.
In 1995, Peter Day visited Bangalore, the place that created India's reputation as computer outsourcing centre. Then India was just starting to take off, fueled by deregulation and a huge pool of high-tech talent. Since then, entrepreneurs have branched out into other industries, and the country has established itself as a world class business hub, but problems including poverty and poor infrastructure remain. Peter Day recently revisited India to hear from the entrepreneurs who started the boom ... and the people who are setting up new businesses today.
