Emerging Technology -Water Purification
Water can be explained as the elixir of life
Safe Drinking Water is a necessity for good health and hygiene
Water Purification is one of the most rapidly growing technologies across the world. This business actually can boom in developing countries like India where there is scarcity of wate
There is a developing modern hunger for "ultrapure" water (UPW) however, tragically, water filtration strategies end up being entirely impractical and energy-drinking. The typical water filtration techniques guide tainted water through a bunch of progressively fine-pored channels at strong tensions; a significantly energy-drinking process, more convoluted by the chance of pores becoming stopped up. Regarding the new development, it uses the course of "forward assimilation" for helping water particles through a film including aquaporins converged in a sponsorship layer.

Application of Hofstede Cultural Dimension
It is necessary to comprehend the Indian culture in order to develop a business that not survive in a different geography but also thrive in new dynamics
Comparing US market with that of Indian market there is a massive difference primarily because of its cultures
Therefore, what worked in Indian market might not be necessary would be applicable in the American market
After applying Greet Hofstede model, it is evident that both Indian and US market operate very differently because of their cultural programming.
Power Distance in India is very high as compared to USA which essentially implies huge implementation of hierarchical culture along with top-to-bottom structure in the society. There is dependence on the power holder for guidance and appreciation in Indian culture as well as wide acceptance of un-equal...
