India counts among the fastest growing markets in the world today
and its growing consumer class have been attracting investor interest.
However, the sub-continent is not one, but multiple markets and
is characterised by
- Vastly diverse
socio-economic conditions
- Complex regional
and national legislation
- Subtle geo-socio-political
dynamics
- More than
15 nationally recognized languages
- Highly fragmented/unorganized
industry structures
- Under-documented
and under-researched market segments
Sourcing comprehensive and well-evidenced research is, therefore,
a major challenge for global corporations, PE / VC funds and research
