I spend at least once a year in Delhi and/or Hyderbad. I have friends in both places and have met multiple times with many movers and shakers in the tech and other communities, including the former ceo of microsoft india, the defense minister, and many below that level. My trip two or three years ago let me observe something amazing - the start of many Indians that were born and raised outside of India are moving to India to start up companies - tech, biotech, etc. The parties I went to... hanging out with brits, french, americans, but all Indian ancestry but not Indian. Many, but not all, were doing quite well with their companies. The ones that had left the West at the highest level of their jobs possible (e.g., cto of louis vuitton, head scientist of a pharma company, etc) were doing the best. The others were struggling. But, given all of that, I couldn't help but think that they may be dooming their children and future generations. It's much easier to move to India with money and success than to move to the West, and I don't think India is there yet to support a successful business/tech class. I do think overall the move back to India is going to be good for India. There's a conflict between the tech and the political class and the political class needs to be taken down a few notches. Can you imagine your outrage when a government official demands a bribe in order for your business to move forward? The Western-originated Indians won't stand for it - one of my trips to Hyderabad a house sale made the news because there was no black money involved...
