Agenda - Evolution to Revolution
• The Evolution of the Telecom and IT Bubble
• The Boom and the Bust
• Evolution to Revolution – The Optical Fiber Industry
– Sterlite Optical Technologies Limited
– The Indian Industry
• Think Global, Act Glocal – Paradigm Shifts in the Industry
– Case Study: The acquisition of Hutch
• Bringing it all together
January 19, 2007 www.sterliteoptical.com
At the turn of the Century - The World was evolving
• Predictions talked about bandwidth multiplying like transistors on PCBs
• Telecom equipment majors were busy putting up capacities to cater to
the humongous demands of Service Providers.
• It seemed like good times were on a roll for Telecom and InfoTech.

A Variant of Murphy’s Law:
“Everything will go wrong at one
point of time.”
Extension of the above Variant:
“That time is always when you
least expect it.”

But Murphy had other plans

Revolutionary Ideas are either
• Accidents – with no/low financial costs incurred
• High R&D efforts – Million/Billion $$$ investments
Key Takeaway:
Be alert for disruptive ideas
and technologies – you will
always come across one when
things have gone wrong.

The Eureka moment …
January 19, 2007 www.sterliteoptical.com
Evolution to Revolution … … …
• The bubble burst saw Equipment majors suffering huge losses. - This forced them to look for Cost reduction possibilities.
• The Outsourcing industry and the Software cycle emerged as radical
opportunities. - The IT revolution is the fastest growing contributor to the Indian GDP now.
The Bust was immediately followed by a
period of gains for the Indian IT majors.
Bloomberg
Was this sudden
shift – an
accident of epic
proportions?
January 19, 2007 www.sterliteoptical.com
Evolution to Revolution … … … The World is Flat
• According to Thomas Friedman – YES !!! He says: - The accident happened around the millennium
- Ushered in the third era of Globalization,
- A revolution happened that made Beijing, Bangalore and Bethesda as next
door neighbours.
• Three flatteners that revolutionized the World. - The fall of the Berlin Wall succeeded by the rise of Microsoft Windows 3.0.
- The Netscape browser, commercialization of open transmission standards and
investment of USD 1 trillion in fiber optic networks.
- The Workflow revolution - development of application-to-application talking
software (middleware) which connected the PC with the deployed bandwidth.
The investment in fiber optic and submarine networks linked
opportunity seeking nations like India & China with loss-
making/profit-seeking nations like the US.
This gave birth to the Outsourcing Industry

What does this mean for you
• Technology is becoming a key differentiator between a Good
and a Great Company.
• Ability to manage and focus technology towards customer
applications is the key role of the Company’s management.
• Adaptability and flexibility in changing technological and value
offerings to customer is key.
• The value of a company/individual is more on its ‘knowledge
capabilities’ and ability to deliver value from this knowledge –
rather than only on Physical Assets.
