The $10 Trillion Prize
The Asia Society presents Bobby Ghosh, Editor-At-Large at TIME magazine, in a conversation with Michael J. Silverstein on "Captivating the Newly Affluent in China and India."
When:
October 2, 2012 12:00pm to 2:30pm
Where
By 2020, the consumer markets of China and India will triple in size and amount to about $10 trillion annually. Already the world’s biggest buyers of cars, mobile phones, shoes, home appliances and more, consumers in these countries are poised to become the new drivers of global economic growth.
Please join Bobby Ghosh, Editor-At-Large at TIME magazine, in a conversation with Michael J. Silverstein on "Captivating the Newly Affluent in China and India." This insightful presentation will be drawn from the newly published book, The $10 Trillion Prize, in which Silverstein and three other BCG partners (two based in China and one in India) analyze recent research to provide the first comprehensive profile of the emerging middle class in these countries. The authors predict that by the end of the current decade, China and India together will boast one billion middle-class consumers — some 320 million households strong — who will transform the global marketplace.
Michael J. Silverstein is a leader of The Boston Consulting Group's global Consumer practice. He specializes in helping the senior leadership of large multinationals transform their companies through superior consumer insight, accelerated organic growth, and M&A. His clients include some of the world’s largest and most prominent consumer goods companies and retailers.
