Traditional Indian IT markets have catered to specific industry classes in remote geographies with foreign technologies and limited service offerings. Emerging markets are expected to be 3-6 fold the traditional market and offer to focus on societal processes within India.
The IT industrys best step forward will be to align to the vision of creating a mission oriented information society. To this end the industry would pursue the mission of enabling societal missions with information.
Homegrown solutions have to be bred with indigenous R&D and applications have to focus on the operation-clerical users, the managers and the governors of processes delivering the products and services for society.
Goa offers the ideal locale for co-locating R&D at a national technology park to generate homegrown technologies. Annual venture funding fairs, technology fairs could catalyse the creation of the new emerging Indian IT markets.
