It Is Time - India & China Ict Synergy
Way forward for collaboration between Indian & Chinese ICT companies – options

This news excited me no ends….. Sobha Renaissance Information Technology (SRIT) of India has entered into a joint venture (JV) with Yunnan Sunpa Image Tel Tech Co. Ltd (Sunpa) in China to form a new entity called Sunpa Sobha Software (China) Ltd. Headquartered in Kunming, Sunpa Sobha Software (China) Ltd. will have operating branches in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen. This is the first JV between India and China in Healthcare ICT.

During Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao’s visit to India last year, his first stop was not the political capital New Delhi but the ICT hub Bangalore. Addressing a crowd of 4,000 ICT professionals, the Premier shared his vision with those present by promoting a new era in Sino-Indian cooperation. "You are No 1 in software. We are No 3 in hardware," he said. "If we put these together, we are the world's No 1 in both." It is no surprise to understand the impact if Asia's giant neighbors seek to combine each other's reciprocal strengths in ICT. The example of Sunpa Sobha Software (China) Ltd. Should go a long way to unfold this puzzle.

According to a recent Forrester report, "How India, China Redefine the Tech World Order", over the next five years markets in India and China will account for nearly 40% of all personal computers (PCs) and a significant share of all mobile telephones sold worldwide. Production sectors in both countries stand to gain enormously from this potential growth. Chinese businesses have been slower to establish bases in India. The most significant investment so far comes from Huawei & ZTE, both members of India China Economic & Cultural Council (ICEC), seeking to take advantage of India's software talent, has established a research-and-development (R&D) institute in Bangalore. While in India both the production and consumption of consumer electronics are still relatively low, the country's vast population and

    WWT considered two other alternatives to develop the software for ICC: double the current capacity of its software division to develop the software in-house or contract out the development of the software. The decision to enter a software joint venture with SSS created much potential for gain and risk. The strengths highlighted include lower labor cost, recent relaxation of government regulation and SSS’s experience writing telecommunications software. Labor costs are significantly lower in India than in the United States and the quality of the work is comparable. Lower labor costs can help increase WWT’s profit margin. The Indian government remains interested in software, which has made it easier for foreign firms to get government approval required to invest in a joint venture and to obtain favorable import tariffs for equipment. WWT speculates it will be able to import software equipment at a 15% tariff, which is 45% lower than other industries. In addition to these benefits, there are some external opportunities that exist from engaging in a joint venture located in India. India is a huge potential market for WWT and therefore it is important for them to learn about the Indian business environment. WWT can take advantage of the opportunity of having the JV located in India by learning…
