PwC's 11
th Annual Global CEO Survey finds that a remarkable 90 percent of respondents in India are very confident about revenue growth over the next 12 months (compared to 50 percent globally), although they are more concerned about such issues as the availability of key skills, energy security, the scarcity of natural resources, security of the supply chain, and the inadequacy of basic infrastructure, amongst others.
Although 30 percent of Indian CEOs feel that geographic expansion is the main opportunity to grow their business (compared to 19 percent globally), a mere three percent think that mergers and acquisitions is the main opportunity to grow their business. Technological innovation, improved sourcing/supply chain management, and cross-cultural experience are regarded as key sources of competitive advantage.
