Stronger industry
Debjani Ghosh, President, NASSCOM, added that they were worried about Covid-19 and about China. The way that Covid-19 has disrupted our lives is unprecedented. Within a few days, we moved over 4 million people and 2 million assets. It was fascinating to see how it all came together. Within a week, the industry had 98% of people WFH.
Even with the opening up, the industry has taken a very safe approach. We are going to see new norms emerge across manufacturing, retail, education, commerce, etc. We are going to see a short-term downturn. We are ready for it. Long term, the IT industry will come out stronger.
The pandemic is opening new opportunities. We need to be ready. We must ensure that the Indian IT industry is the safest and fastest-moving across the world. I see a tremendous opportunity for the industry. We have to change our models very fast. We have to redefine customer experience in a contactless economy. We have to start investing in time and resources in new jobs. Our people will need new skills to drive this digital transformation.
