BONUS: Renaud Tours India, June ’22. Is it a good China-alternative?

In this episode... Renaud comes to you live from Chennai where he's been travelling around India for two weeks exploring a lot of different types of component suppliers. He reports back on what he's learnt on this visit, how India has been changing, and why there seem to be many reasons now to consider India as an alternative to China for, at least, some of your production. Renaud covers: Which areas he visited & regional differences Political stability What types of suppliers could be alternatives to Chinese counterparts Manual Work VS Automation Where China still trumps India, for now Who has already been moving to India Benefits he found about dealing with factory owners and managers, and their operations, over those in China Is India still let down by a lack of component suppliers for your supply chain?
