The rewards of doing business with India are great today. But only for the patient. I counsel my clients to pack some extra patience and a sense of humor when they travel to India.
The Ambani billionaire brothers are known in India for moving very quickly. Yet the god of Hollywood (Steven Spielberg) is finding that they pace is not quite what he might have expected. In August, I predicted that Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal were likely to be off when they predicted that the deal between Spielberg and Ambani was imminent. Those publications have been quiet since.
Now on September 1, we have BusinessWeek saying that the deal is imminent. Any day now, heh heh. I’m holding my breath, are you?
They don’t call me THE India Expert for nothing.
