This is the first copy of JIEBS. The papers it presents are the result of a call for papers CEBS made in 2011. We actually received far more interesting papers and research reports than expected.They all passed a double blind review and the papers naturally are the original work of the named authors. The choice we finally made was also influenced by the topic of the CEBS annual conference 2011, namely the influence of infrastructure and skilled labour on Indo-European Business. The papers analyse structure and explain many issues related to this, they raise questions and point towards areas for further research and they form the nucleus of this new and currently only scientific platform for Indo-European business studies.
Die Informatics Inside-Konferenz findet in diesem Jahr zum dritten Mal statt. Mit dem Thema "Grenzen überwinden – Virtualität erweitert Realität" stellt sich die Veranstaltung einem aktuellen Schwerpunkt, der viele Interessierte aus Wirtschaft, Wissenschaft und Forschung anzieht. Die Konferenz hat sich von einer Veranstaltung für die Masterstudenten des Studiengangs Medien- und Kommunikationsinformatik zu einer offenen Studentenkonferenz entwickelt. Um die Qualität weiter zu steigern wurde parallel dazu ein zweistufiges Review-Verfahren für Beiträge dieses Tagungsbandes eingeführt.
India’s growth: perspectives for Indo-European business “Skilled labour in India: bridging the gap”
(2011)
The following paper is based on a survey conducted for ESB Business School and will show how German companies perceive India’s labour market. Besides existing geographical and sectoral gaps we will reveal gaps in the required qualification profile. Thinking merely of hard qualification factors like education levels, skills etc., though, would be short-sighted. Often cited intercultural qualifications also play an important role.
What can be done? What should be done to bridge these gaps? These will be the leading questions of this chapter. We will discuss some solutions – not forgetting that the problems German companies face are complex and knowing there is no ideal way. However, we will see that some of the most urgent problems can be solved or reduced by Indo-European or Indo-German co operation models in the field of vocational training and institutions of higher education.
Since 2000, Indian special economic zones were established with the intention to attract foreign direct investment. We present a first empirical assessment with new data from 1980 to 2010 and evaluate the outcome after 10 years. In general, our empirical results confirm that special economic zones attract FDI statistical significantly. Another finding of the study is that open economies with stable inflation attract more FDI than small and closed economies.
