Check Out That Colombian Tata!

On a trip to Colombia, the author was surprised to find an example of the new nature of international corporations. Tata Consultancy is a branch of the Indian car company that recently bought several British and American brand-name car labels. Tata’s Colombian branch is providing services to a number of Latin American governments and corporations. An Argentinian manager oversees employees from a number of different countries and makes monthly trips to India to meet with his supervisor. Tata's activities in Latin America are an example of south-to-south trade, a growing phenomenon, and show how global technologies facilitate economic growth on a global scale. –YaleGlobal
