I Will Not Rest Until Levi's Is Back To Its Glory Days
Levi’s was the quintessential dominant American jeans wear brand in the late 1990s. The brand, credited with inventing denim, commanded a premium and the market lapped up whatever it had to offer. Then came what its global President and CEO Charles V. Bergh, or Chip Bergh, calls the lost generation – the young and restless who cared less about legacy and more about style and comfort. As baggy and yoga pants came in vogue, Levi’s lost its touch, most palpably with women buyers. After taking over in 2011, Bergh has successfully stemmed the decline, but the turnaround is still in progress. Speaking to BT’s Sumant Banerji, Bergh outlines his ambition and how India will play a major role for Levi’s.

Nation states have added a new dimension to what is emerging as the newest theatre of war after air, sea, water and space — the Internet. They interfere in other countries' elections, in their power grids, in sports events, and are even alleged to be disabling naval vessels over the cloud to cause accidents. But that’s not the only area where cyber defence needs to be beefed up. Enterprises continue to remain major targets, as do governments, financial institutions and even national identity databases. Business Today’s Rajeev Dubey talks to Greg Clark, CEO of the world’s biggest cyber security firm, Symantec, on how such issues are being dealt with.
