Context
In the late 1990s, we took a brave decision to incorporate ‘Advantage-India’. It turned out to be prescient, as India went on to emerge as a major global player. We too have evolved, to advise business interests in Singapore, Hong Kong, China, India, United Arab Emirates, the African continent, United Kingdom and Germany.
