Using these firms as an example Prof. Chandra urged the students to think in terms of short cycle growth rather than large scale growth. He explained how PBW managed to overcome odds against their growth and established a long lasting relationship with their customers. He pointed out the common characteristics that these firms had, which was scientifically driven and home-grown.
After a healthy discussion with the students on the need and requirements to start up small scale firms like these, Prof. Chandra concluded the lecture with the thought that why does a firm need to grow big in size. Can't it stay medium and still achieve its goal?
