India's Growth Wave: the Jugaad Studio Advantage
This story is our take on the article “How to get rich in the 21st century” by The Economist, and how startups can ride this wave
In the ambitious race towards economic prosperity by 2050, India stands as a key player with Prime Minister Narendra Modi aiming to surpass the World Bank’s high-income threshold. This strategic vision unveils immense opportunities for startup creation, especially through the innovative approaches offered by Jugaad Studio.
India’s Ambitious Growth Plans
Modi’s target of 8% annual GDP growth reflects a bold aspiration, demanding strategies beyond traditional norms. While the typical route involves liberalising reforms, India, along with other emerging economies, seeks extraordinary growth reminiscent of East Asian success stories from the 1970s and 1980s. The focus on high-tech manufacturing is evident, with an “extraordinary obsession with making stuff right on the technological frontier.”
Jugaad Studio’s Role
