Revi. “India has a lot of talent and capital, but to compete in ‘The Great Tech Game’, she lacks technology, policy and strategy,” he argues, adding, “just having unicorns is not enough. The total combined bank balances of the hundred or so we have today will not add up to even one of the big tech firms in the U.S. or elsewhere.” Watch this discussion for more on his “gameplan for nations to draw on their comparative advantages and compete through tailored strategies.”
