Breakfast with TiE Pune: Satish Magar (of Magarpatta fame) - How To Overcome The Cost Hurdle To Become More Competitive December 8, 2010

Namita Shibad of TiE Pune writes:

With increasing pressure on costs, businesses often lose their advantage over their competitors. The Magarpatta Development Company found innovative ways to help their BPO and IT companies deal with the cost pressure. Rather than slash salaries that would impact efficiency, they reduced the air-conditioning by two degrees and changed the employee transportation from cars to buses. This helped the companies situated at Magarpatta lower their costs substantially and retain their cost competitiveness. Often it is the simple solutions that work best. Satish Magar will share this and more such initiatives to provide insights into how out-of-the-box thinking helps the organization
Every entrepreneur has to deal with this issue sooner or later in the life span of his business.
Come and share your cost cutting story and listen to the others who have had similar experiences. Sharing can only open new vistas not explored before.
