Everything is achievable, I was always skeptical about that phrase up until I joined The Sauder School of Business. Once I started paying attention to and actually keeping up with the news on the corporate world, I started to realise that there are actually people who have proven that statement to be true. This blog post is going to be about a Global Consultancy and IT Services Company called Infosys.
Infosys is a company worth US$ 8.39 billion with a market capitalisation of around US$ 31 billion which has over 161,000 employees as of today. In a span of 30 years Infosys has put India on the map as a global destination for software services talent. They are responsible for creating The Global Delivery model and is the first Indian IT company to be listed on the NASDAQ stock market. Would you believe me if I said this company was founded by 6 people in a small apartment in India with a starting capital of US $250? Well, it’s true. That’s all it took to make a distant dream a reality. The hard work of 6 men and their ambition turned $250 into a $8.39 billion company. Infosys also has a very successful business model, here is a link to it http://www.infosysbpo.com/insights/Documents/right-business-model.pdf.
Perseverance makes dreams achievable.
That is all I wanted to shed light on.
