You have visited India after 25 years. What are the changes that have stood out the most?

India has changed immensely in the last 25 years. It is almost unrecognisable in the best possible way. The transformation has been profound, not just in terms of infrastructure and economic development, but more importantly, in the spirit of the people. I have witnessed a nation that is rapidly evolving, brimming with energy and ambition.

One of the most striking shifts is the calibre and capability of the Indian workforce. The talent here is remarkable. India's human resource pool is highly skilled, creative and incredibly driven. This is one of India's greatest strengths and a key reason why Daikin sees the country as central to our global strategy.
