India's IT connexion

If India has recorded a growth of 9%, it is the service sector which has contributed a lot... Both in Jobs and wealth...
The Indian IT sector is one of the most basic service sector that has helped India a lot...

Everyone talks about India becoming an IT super power...Will India ever become a IT super power? Is the country on the right direction?
Well a report sayssss.... India is ranked 48th in the world in the IT industry competitiveness index 2008.

India has an overall score of 28.9 on the IT competitive index as per the study conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit. The study assesses and compares the IT industry environments of 66 countries to find out the IT sector's competitiveness.

The study revealed that India performed best in business environment and support for IT industry development with a score of 59.3 per cent and 54 per cent. Areas of improvement include IT infrastructure and R & D environment, which are relatively low in the IT industry competitive index.


Rank 1 :US


The US ranks first in the IT industry competitiveness index 2008. The US offers the world's most supportive environment for IT firms, despite the current economic turmoil, the study by the Economist Intelligence Unit states.

Rank 2: Taiwan


While Taiwan is the second best country in terms of IT competitiveness, the UK, Sweden and Denmark with strong and open business environments, well-developed infrastructure and robust legal protection for intellectual property are in the top five list.


Rank 3: The UK


The US, Singapore and UK provide the best environments for human-capital development. The US is a bug attraction for foreign students.

However, the brain drain of IT talent from emerging markets is slowing down as training opportunities increase in many markets. Many IT professionals also return home to countries like India and Vietnam to work in top companies or head start-ups, the EIU study points out.

Rank 4: Sweden


Sweden and Denmark have risen to the 4th and 5th respectively thanks to a more favourable business environment and improvement in IT infrastructure.

The countries in the top ranks owe their technological edge to high-quality networks.


Rank 5: Denmark


Denmark's score has also risen in the human capital category. The study takes into account overall business environment, IT infrastructure, human capital, legal environment, R&D environment, support for IT industry development.

Give reasons to smile :-)

Everyone in his life has a wrap of worries and concerns, Someone is worried for his career, someone has a family related issue, lot many are strucked in business, few are just too busy with the tension of studies, a lot many are busy with the tensions in friendship and amongst the friends... In my opinion, giving others a reason to worry is an easy task, it takes just fw minutes to hurt anyone, slap him, hit him, say him something undesired, it'll solve the purpose... but for spreading smiles something extra needs to be done.. it is difficult to manage tears than to bring them from someone's eyes. its too difficult to make others laugh from the heart... Looking at few of my peers ( not my close ones frm instt) , i find ppl changin for their parents, why do we tend to forget them ? when we grow? , why our friends become more important in a way tht they take a pie from the share of our moms and dads.. how many times do we think before saying a lie to our moms and dads. Hw do we ...

CRYSYS... The US Meltdown...

Pick out any news paper of today, i guess we have around 65000 newspapers that are registered.... The headline for today is Financial CRISIS... Our country is being affected by the global crisis, that have started from US's sub prime loan issues...  Well , its no surprise , if u look at the following few points.. you'll get an idea on the reasons: Most of our exports in the US, if they go down,we need to bear We have ample of foreign reserves in dollars, any change in their economy has a direct impact on ours. Many of our financial institutions have a connection with the investment bankers of US and  Europe, The prob of foreign exposure can be seen. Our Indian Stock market is very sensitive to information and sentiments, we are just followin the trend. The US is slowing down significantly and the US investors are at risk. That is something, which is a serious problem. If you look at market behavior, over the last 10-15 years, whenever the Fed cut rates, it has normally been goo...

Being there to somewhere.. Life Surprises(4)

PART 4 Related Parts:  PART 10   PART 9  PART 8  PART 7  PART 6   PART 5   PART 4   PART 3   PART 2   PART 1 With the post-graduation stepping into my life, the fear of being grown up kept rolling my mind. The exams and pattern of studies, although, had no fundamental change, but the pressure of higher studies had a superior space. Not that studies changed, neither were we getting scanned in the rule of autocratic professors, my mind had an urgency, an urge to just get into earning mode. The thought was to get whopping first salary of 2.26 lacs pm and do away with education loan :-) (Obviously Reliance Adag's campaign induced me to think bigger and better).
