Business does not operate in isolation. Growth of business in any region, country, state or a city depends on its ecosystem. Economic, political, quality of governance, technological, socio-cultural, geographical, geopolitical, and historical factors are important components of business ecosystem. In order to understand and leverage on ecosystem for growth of business, it is essential to study and research the ecosystem. The ecosystem is not common for all sectors.

The challenge is dynamic nature of the ecosystem. The complex inter-woven relationship among varied factors of ecosystems, works differently for different sectors, at different point of time in different locations. Ecosystem to be developed for growth of business needs to be researched. In depth understanding of ecosystem enables organizations to thrive in this rapidly changing environment. The network of vendors, labor force, ancillaries, channel partners and customers constitute the core of business ecosystem.

Today, every business in the ecosystem influences and gets influenced by others, creating a constantly evolving relationship. As business brings in employment, prosperity, growth and development, there is competition among different destinations for developing business. In this background, the study of ecosystem has become crucial for Governments, Corporate, International Organizations, Academicians, and all stakeholders of business.

Keeping this in view, this conference “Ecosystem for Growth of Business” is conceived. Ideal ecosystem should nurture technological development, balanced regional growth, healthy growth of varied sectors, protection of fragile ecosystem, growth of business with human face and benefits of growth in business reaching all sections of the society. More than any of these, ideal ecosystem should nurture a harmonious world.
