“Thinking Large Scale - breaking the "Can I do It?" barrier”

TiE are organizing this interesting event, it is an interactive conversation between Ayaz Memon and Kishore Biyani on Thinking Large Scale. I will miss the event as am in London, but would highly encourage our members to attend and also avail of the networking opportunities with other attendees.

Kishore Biyani is the Chief Knowledge Officer and the entrepreneurial spirit behind Pantaloon Retail India Ltd. a Rs 4.45bn retailing giant, that has given India multiple formats of retailing in less than six years. He has rewritten several rules in an industry that was branded ‘western’ and this resulted in the framing of the company’s corporate credo – Rewrite rules, retain values.

A contrarian at heart, Kishore Biyani prides in being Indian and strongly advocates ‘Indianness’ as a core value driving his company. Thanks to this Indian value, he has given India a pan-Indian model of retailing He believes that India will be a difficult turf for retailing as Indian preferences change every few kilometers and the one who evolves with the Indian consumer will emerge as a leader. A passionate reader, he spends time in understanding the philosophies behind major retailers and retail movement across the world.
