Exploring Business 
in India

   

Despite a global recession, India’s economy has been growing at a steady pace and the prime minister expects it to expand at least 7 percent this year. Even if you’re not planning to start or expand a business in India, exploring its business climate and culture can be an enlightening experience.

In this edition of Smith Business Close-Up with the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of Business, MBA student Scott Lewis talks about a recent international study trip to India and the insights he and his fellow classmates gained there. 

Smith Business Close-Up is co-produced by the Robert H. Smith School of Business and Maryland Public Television. The television segment focuses on the latest thinking in business management, and features in-depth interviews with Smith School faculty and other members of the school’s community of business leaders.
