TCS pact done in 90 min: Andhra Minister Lokesh on speed of doing business

It is no longer ease of doing business’. The new mantra of attracting investments is “speed of doing business” which helped the Andhra Pradesh government close the deal with TCS to set up a campus in Visakhapatnam in just 90 minutes, Minister Nara Lokesh said.

In an interactive session at the ITServe Alliance Synergy Conference in Las Vegas (USA), Lokesh said Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu-led NDA regime in the state is actually looking at business processes reengineering in the government to deliver seamless governance in the hands of people, making officials and politicians irrelevant.
