(Commonwealth_India) In a recent event held in Coimbatore, R. Dinesh, the chairman of TVS Supply Chain Solutions, highlighted the potential of Indian companies, entrepreneurs, and educational institutions to succeed not only within India but also on the global stage. He emphasized that the key to unlocking this potential lies in having the aspiration to expand and excel beyond national borders.
Dinesh was addressing the audience during the presentation of the sixth edition of the Brand Coimbatore Ambassador Awards, which was organized by the Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Coimbatore, and The Advertising Club, Coimbatore. The awards were presented in association with PSG Institutions, the presentation partner. In his speech, Dinesh lauded the awardees for their global ambitions and commitment to leadership. He stated that such awards are more than a recognition of business success; they highlight the achievements, aspirations, and capabilities of companies that serve as examples for others to emulate.
The Brand Coimbatore Ambassador Awards aims to recognize not just the success of businesses but also their role in building and nurturing the community, ecosystem, and infrastructure around them. By supporting smaller businesses and fostering growth within their localities, these businesses contribute to the overall competitiveness of India. Dinesh further pointed out that while the global landscape is filled with uncertainty, this very uncertainty can present valuable opportunities. He stressed that every country admires India not only for its capabilities but also envies its optimism for growth and achievement. According to Dinesh, Coimbatore stands as a prime example of this optimism, as it continues to witness economic and industrial progress.
Another key point raised by Dinesh was the unique approach of Tamil Nadu businesses toward entrepreneurship. He spoke about the importance of tapping into local talents, creating an ecosystem of growth, and building businesses that generate profits that can be reinvested into future projects, people, and society. This cycle of reinvestment is seen as a key factor in the success of businesses in the region.
The awardees of the evening were recognized for their continued contribution to the region and beyond. Premier Mills Group was honored with the Legacy Brand award, acknowledging its longstanding impact on the industry. Craftsman Automation and Ramraj Cotton were recognized as Iconic Brands, reflecting their significant influence and recognition on a wider scale.
