Tech sector grows amid pandemic

The global pandemic of information security is proving to be a deterrent for the tech industry in India as well. It is said that the information security industry will grow at a compounded rate of about twelve percent annually, but this still leaves plenty of room for innovation. The problem with many businesses is that they don’t have the right technology to back up their creativity. Many times they try to emulate existing technologies, which just reduces their ability to test and tweak new ideas.

However, as the industry becomes more competitive and investors become less tolerant to risk, it seems as though companies that are less innovative may suffer more than their more creative competitors. Just like any other industry, the tech sector has its good and bad. Companies that succeed in the sector should be able to adopt cutting-edge technologies to stay ahead of their competitors. They should be creative, innovative and willing to take risk to meet customer needs.

The Information technology industry in India can sustain some sort of slowdown, but it is not likely. The reason for the slowdown is the same that causes all industries to experience a slowdown-the global recession. In India, however, we are seeing growth in all sectors. Consumer internet services, which includes e-commerce, are growing at about 25 percent annually. They continue to lag behind developed economies like the United States and Britain in broadband speeds.

The third most growing sector is telecommunication. This is led by telecom companies, which are aggressively pushing fiber to every doorstep. These telecom companies are also setting up cell phone towers across the country to take advantage of the growing popularity of these devices. Video phones are another fast-growing sector, and the cheapest and easiest way to call people around the world is through these handsets. Internet telephony is also gaining steam in all key cities across India.

The software industry is also enjoying unprecedented growth in India. This is largely driven by the large number of companies that started in the market during the last decade. As a result, there is an oversupply of software professionals and companies are vying for the same talent. This has created job opportunities galore for thousands of graduates and young professionals searching for an IT career. The biggest advantage of this sector is that nearly half of the IT professionals work offshore from their home countries. In other words, the competition between Indian companies and offshore companies is getting hotter with each passing day.

All in all, India’s economy will grow despite any current global recession. New advances in sectors such as IT, automobiles, biotechnology, and other industries will spur more growth in India. If you are planning to set up a new business in India, you should know that there are several domestic and foreign investors waiting for an opportunity to make inroads in this country. Given the aforementioned scenario, it is not going to be long before your dream of a successful business career turns into reality.
