<span style="font-size:15px;">TE Connectivity, one of the leading connectivity companies around the world, is a $13 billion world leader in the field. With nearly 90,000 employees in over 50 countries, the company designs and manufactures electronic connections for the world’s leading industries including automotive, energy and industrial, broadband communications, consumer devices, health care, aerospace and defense. On 20th December 2013, TE Connectivity officially launched itself in Nepal in a partnership with Shrestha Amrit Traders Pvt Ltd (SAT). In an interview with The Corporate’s <strong>Rashika Pokharel</strong>, TE Connectivity’s <strong>R Murugesan</strong>, Country Sales Manager, India and SAARC, talked about TE’s journey around the world and its plans in Nepal. <strong>Excerpts:</strong></span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>Tell us about TE Connectivity’s history</strong></span>.</div>
<div>
We are the global leaders in terms of connectivity and computer networking products. The company was started in 1945 and it was originally known as AMP net connectivity. In the year 1999, TYCO International took over the company and then, was known as Tyco Electronics. However, after couple of years, the company was renamed as TE Connectivity. We make connectivity products irrespective of the industries. We produce consumer appliances such as mobile phones and other household appliances. We are focusing on computer networking products and cabling products which is a lifeline for all other cabling networks. We provide cabling for office networks, data centers and large campuses. We mainly focus on Local Area Networks (LAN) though we also have wireless services. We have complete product range for telecommunication networks. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>Briefly describe about TE’s operation globally.</strong></span></div>
<div>
We manage companies in India and other SAARC countries. We have good operation in Srilanka, Bangladesh and Bhutan. We make our selling through distributors and system integrated partners. Some of our integrated partners in India are: HP, IBM, Wipro Infotech. They buy our cabling products and other networking instruments and install in customer premises. Our head quarter is in USA and have office in India also. We manage business from India. We have got 36% of market share in India.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What is the reason for choosing Nepal in particular for business expansion?</strong></span></div>
<div>
Nepal is very potential market because the telecommunication market is rising here. This is the reason we see Nepal as an important market. Future prospect is good for our company here. Since the last one year, we are focusing on Nepal’s market. We have identified SAT as our business partner. SAT will be funding our business in Nepal. The reason for our visit is to educate and inform our partner as well as the people of Nepal about our products and their usage. We have planned to focus on office networks in Nepal.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Nepal is widely known for its tourism and hospitality. They need wide networking services and we provide that. We have planned to focus on office networks and data cabling here. As offices require LAN and use fiber optic products, we are trying to supply it in Nepal. Though we officially launched TE Connectivity on 20th December this year, we have been studying the market since last year. We are doing Surya Nepal project here which is also an ICT company. Basically, we will be focusing on Banking and Financial Institutions, along with hospitality and tourism industry clients. We will be working on government projects also. We are planning to establish a connection between various districts, as part of our government project.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What is the idea behind your success? How is it different from other companies?</strong></span></div>
<div>
The first thing is that our organization is committed. Secondly, we have got right people to manage the business. Finally, it is our products. These three factors have helped our company to become successful. We understand technology very well and it is definitely a plus point for us. Moreover, we don’t believe in transactional selling, we believe in relationship building.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>The tech market has been suffering from fast changes. As such, how is TE Connectivity keeping its pace with the pace of change?</strong></span></div>
<div>
The TE Connectivity team is a part of Standard Committee and so, whenever a new technology comes in, our company is updated about it. Our company has been investing much amount on R&DT (Research and Development Test). Our team is working on finding out new technologies and we are also trying to cope with that. We are an innovative company with global recognition for our services and products. The demand for our products in the global market justifies that our products are unique and good. 24 per cent of our business globally comes from the products that we have produced in the last three years. This clearly states that we are ahead in the market and we are proud of that. Our diversity in the products is helping us to handle the market situation. Of course, there are turbulences, but we are not suffering from that. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What are your business strategies for Nepal?</strong></span></div>
<div>
Our main strategy in Nepal will be educating the people about technology. We are planning to conduct more workshops to acquaint the people with new technology. We are committed towards this aim, rather than only selling our products. We have different levels of training programs. Our strategy is that once people understand our technology, it will be easier for us to sell. We want to educate the customers so that they understand technology well before investing in it. This way they will invest in the right product.</div>

<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>As the head of TE-SAARC, what are TE’s future prospects in South Asia?</strong></span></div>
<div>
Product sales is good in South Asia. If we see whole South Asia, communication era started some time back. There are still more advancements to happen regarding automation. If we look at South Asia in terms of automation, only 10 percent achievement has been made. We have huge potentials to harness in the years to come. There are so many government and educational institutions that have to be automatised. 5 or10 years down the lane, Nepal and India will have automatised infrastructures. In Nepal, the telecommunication industry has already started using such technology. Therefore, Nepal has huge potential and it will definitely grow ahead.</div>',

In an interview with The Corporate’s <strong>Rashika Pokharel</strong>, TE Connectivity’s <strong>R Murugesan</strong>, Country Sales Manager, India and SAARC, talked about TE’s journey around the world and its plans in Nepal. <strong>Excerpts:</strong></span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>Tell us about TE Connectivity’s history</strong></span>.</div>
<div>
We are the global leaders in terms of connectivity and computer networking products. The company was started in 1945 and it was originally known as AMP net connectivity. In the year 1999, TYCO International took over the company and then, was known as Tyco Electronics. However, after couple of years, the company was renamed as TE Connectivity. We make connectivity products irrespective of the industries. We produce consumer appliances such as mobile phones and other household appliances. We are focusing on computer networking products and cabling products which is a lifeline for all other cabling networks. We provide cabling for office networks, data centers and large campuses. We mainly focus on Local Area Networks (LAN) though we also have wireless services. We have complete product range for telecommunication networks. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>Briefly describe about TE’s operation globally.</strong></span></div>
<div>
We manage companies in India and other SAARC countries. We have good operation in Srilanka, Bangladesh and Bhutan. We make our selling through distributors and system integrated partners. Some of our integrated partners in India are: HP, IBM, Wipro Infotech. They buy our cabling products and other networking instruments and install in customer premises. Our head quarter is in USA and have office in India also. We manage business from India. We have got 36% of market share in India.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What is the reason for choosing Nepal in particular for business expansion?</strong></span></div>
<div>
Nepal is very potential market because the telecommunication market is rising here. This is the reason we see Nepal as an important market. Future prospect is good for our company here. Since the last one year, we are focusing on Nepal’s market. We have identified SAT as our business partner. SAT will be funding our business in Nepal. The reason for our visit is to educate and inform our partner as well as the people of Nepal about our products and their usage. We have planned to focus on office networks in Nepal.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Nepal is widely known for its tourism and hospitality. They need wide networking services and we provide that. We have planned to focus on office networks and data cabling here. As offices require LAN and use fiber optic products, we are trying to supply it in Nepal. Though we officially launched TE Connectivity on 20th December this year, we have been studying the market since last year. We are doing Surya Nepal project here which is also an ICT company. Basically, we will be focusing on Banking and Financial Institutions, along with hospitality and tourism industry clients. We will be working on government projects also. We are planning to establish a connection between various districts, as part of our government project.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What is the idea behind your success? How is it different from other companies?</strong></span></div>
<div>
The first thing is that our organization is committed. Secondly, we have got right people to manage the business. Finally, it is our products. These three factors have helped our company to become successful. We understand technology very well and it is definitely a plus point for us. Moreover, we don’t believe in transactional selling, we believe in relationship building.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>The tech market has been suffering from fast changes. As such, how is TE Connectivity keeping its pace with the pace of change?</strong></span></div>
<div>
The TE Connectivity team is a part of Standard Committee and so, whenever a new technology comes in, our company is updated about it. Our company has been investing much amount on R&DT (Research and Development Test). Our team is working on finding out new technologies and we are also trying to cope with that. We are an innovative company with global recognition for our services and products. The demand for our products in the global market justifies that our products are unique and good. 24 per cent of our business globally comes from the products that we have produced in the last three years. This clearly states that we are ahead in the market and we are proud of that. Our diversity in the products is helping us to handle the market situation. Of course, there are turbulences, but we are not suffering from that. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What are your business strategies for Nepal?</strong></span></div>
<div>
Our main strategy in Nepal will be educating the people about technology. We are planning to conduct more workshops to acquaint the people with new technology. We are committed towards this aim, rather than only selling our products. We have different levels of training programs. Our strategy is that once people understand our technology, it will be easier for us to sell. We want to educate the customers so that they understand technology well before investing in it. This way they will invest in the right product.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>As the head of TE-SAARC, what are TE’s future prospects in South Asia?</strong></span></div>
<div>
Product sales is good in South Asia. If we see whole South Asia, communication era started some time back. There are still more advancements to happen regarding automation. If we look at South Asia in terms of automation, only 10 percent achievement has been made. We have huge potentials to harness in the years to come. There are so many government and educational institutions that have to be automatised. 5 or10 years down the lane, Nepal and India will have automatised infrastructures. In Nepal, the telecommunication industry has already started using such technology. Therefore, Nepal has huge potential and it will definitely grow ahead.</div>',

We are the global leaders in terms of connectivity and computer networking products. The company was started in 1945 and it was originally known as AMP net connectivity. In the year 1999, TYCO International took over the company and then, was known as Tyco Electronics. However, after couple of years, the company was renamed as TE Connectivity. We make connectivity products irrespective of the industries. We produce consumer appliances such as mobile phones and other household appliances. We are focusing on computer networking products and cabling products which is a lifeline for all other cabling networks. We provide cabling for office networks, data centers and large campuses. We mainly focus on Local Area Networks (LAN) though we also have wireless services. We have complete product range for telecommunication networks.
Briefly describe about TE’s operation globally.
We manage companies in India and other SAARC countries. We have good operation in Srilanka, Bangladesh and Bhutan. We make our selling through distributors and system integrated partners. Some of our integrated partners in India are: HP, IBM, Wipro Infotech. They buy our cabling products and other networking instruments and install in customer premises. Our head quarter is in USA and have office in India also. We manage business from India. We have got 36% of market share in India.
What is the reason for choosing Nepal in particular for business expansion?
Nepal is very potential market because the telecommunication market is rising here. This is the reason we see Nepal as an important market. Future prospect is good for our company here. Since the last one year, we are focusing on Nepal’s market. We have identified SAT as our business partner. SAT will be funding our business in Nepal. The reason for our visit is to educate and inform our partner as well as the people of Nepal about our products and their usage. We have planned to focus on office networks in Nepal.
Nepal is widely known for its tourism and hospitality. They need wide networking services and we provide that. We have planned to focus on office networks and data cabling here. As offices require LAN and use fiber optic products, we are trying to supply it in Nepal. Though we officially launched TE Connectivity on 20th December this year, we have been studying the market since last year. We are doing Surya Nepal project here which is also an ICT company. Basically, we will be focusing on Banking and Financial Institutions, along with hospitality and tourism industry clients. We will be working on government projects also. We are planning to establish a connection between various districts, as part of our government project.
What is the idea behind your success? How is it different from other companies?
The first thing is that our organization is committed. Secondly, we have got right people to manage the business. Finally, it is our products. These three factors have helped our company to become successful. We understand technology very well and it is definitely a plus point for us. Moreover, we don’t believe in transactional selling, we believe in relationship building.
The tech market has been suffering from fast changes. As such, how is TE Connectivity keeping its pace with the pace of change?
The TE Connectivity team is a part of Standard Committee and so, whenever a new technology comes in, our company is updated about it. Our company has been investing much amount on R&DT (Research and Development Test). Our team is working on finding out new technologies and we are also trying to cope with that. We are an innovative company with global recognition for our services and products. The demand for our products in the global market justifies that our products are unique and good. 24 per cent of our business globally comes from the products that we have produced in the last three years. This clearly states that we are ahead in the market and we are proud of that. Our diversity in the products is helping us to handle the market situation. Of course, there are turbulences, but we are not suffering from that.
What are your business strategies for Nepal?
Our main strategy in Nepal will be educating the people about technology. We are planning to conduct more workshops to acquaint the people with new technology. We are committed towards this aim, rather than only selling our products. We have different levels of training programs. Our strategy is that once people understand our technology, it will be easier for us to sell. We want to educate the customers so that they understand technology well before investing in it. This way they will invest in the right product.
As the head of TE-SAARC, what are TE’s future prospects in South Asia?
Product sales is good in South Asia. If we see whole South Asia, communication era started some time back. There are still more advancements to happen regarding automation. If we look at South Asia in terms of automation, only 10 percent achievement has been made. We have huge potentials to harness in the years to come. There are so many government and educational institutions that have to be automatised. 5 or10 years down the lane, Nepal and India will have automatised infrastructures. In Nepal, the telecommunication industry has already started using such technology. Therefore, Nepal has huge potential and it will definitely grow ahead.

This clearly states that we are ahead in the market and we are proud of that. Our diversity in the products is helping us to handle the market situation. Of course, there are turbulences, but we are not suffering from that. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What are your business strategies for Nepal?</strong></span></div>
<div>
Our main strategy in Nepal will be educating the people about technology. We are planning to conduct more workshops to acquaint the people with new technology. We are committed towards this aim, rather than only selling our products. We have different levels of training programs. Our strategy is that once people understand our technology, it will be easier for us to sell. We want to educate the customers so that they understand technology well before investing in it. This way they will invest in the right product.</div>

<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>As the head of TE-SAARC, what are TE’s future prospects in South Asia?</strong></span></div>
<div>
Product sales is good in South Asia. If we see whole South Asia, communication era started some time back. There are still more advancements to happen regarding automation. If we look at South Asia in terms of automation, only 10 percent achievement has been made. We have huge potentials to harness in the years to come. There are so many government and educational institutions that have to be automatised. 5 or10 years down the lane, Nepal and India will have automatised infrastructures. In Nepal, the telecommunication industry has already started using such technology. Therefore, Nepal has huge potential and it will definitely grow ahead.</div>',

In an interview with The Corporate’s <strong>Rashika Pokharel</strong>, TE Connectivity’s <strong>R Murugesan</strong>, Country Sales Manager, India and SAARC, talked about TE’s journey around the world and its plans in Nepal. <strong>Excerpts:</strong></span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>Tell us about TE Connectivity’s history</strong></span>.</div>
<div>
We are the global leaders in terms of connectivity and computer networking products. The company was started in 1945 and it was originally known as AMP net connectivity. In the year 1999, TYCO International took over the company and then, was known as Tyco Electronics. However, after couple of years, the company was renamed as TE Connectivity. We make connectivity products irrespective of the industries. We produce consumer appliances such as mobile phones and other household appliances. We are focusing on computer networking products and cabling products which is a lifeline for all other cabling networks. We provide cabling for office networks, data centers and large campuses. We mainly focus on Local Area Networks (LAN) though we also have wireless services. We have complete product range for telecommunication networks. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>Briefly describe about TE’s operation globally.</strong></span></div>
<div>
We manage companies in India and other SAARC countries. We have good operation in Srilanka, Bangladesh and Bhutan. We make our selling through distributors and system integrated partners. Some of our integrated partners in India are: HP, IBM, Wipro Infotech. They buy our cabling products and other networking instruments and install in customer premises. Our head quarter is in USA and have office in India also. We manage business from India. We have got 36% of market share in India.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What is the reason for choosing Nepal in particular for business expansion?</strong></span></div>
<div>
Nepal is very potential market because the telecommunication market is rising here. This is the reason we see Nepal as an important market. Future prospect is good for our company here. Since the last one year, we are focusing on Nepal’s market. We have identified SAT as our business partner. SAT will be funding our business in Nepal. The reason for our visit is to educate and inform our partner as well as the people of Nepal about our products and their usage. We have planned to focus on office networks in Nepal.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Nepal is widely known for its tourism and hospitality. They need wide networking services and we provide that. We have planned to focus on office networks and data cabling here. As offices require LAN and use fiber optic products, we are trying to supply it in Nepal. Though we officially launched TE Connectivity on 20th December this year, we have been studying the market since last year. We are doing Surya Nepal project here which is also an ICT company. Basically, we will be focusing on Banking and Financial Institutions, along with hospitality and tourism industry clients. We will be working on government projects also. We are planning to establish a connection between various districts, as part of our government project.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What is the idea behind your success? How is it different from other companies?</strong></span></div>
<div>
The first thing is that our organization is committed. Secondly, we have got right people to manage the business. Finally, it is our products. These three factors have helped our company to become successful. We understand technology very well and it is definitely a plus point for us. Moreover, we don’t believe in transactional selling, we believe in relationship building.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>The tech market has been suffering from fast changes. As such, how is TE Connectivity keeping its pace with the pace of change?</strong></span></div>
<div>
The TE Connectivity team is a part of Standard Committee and so, whenever a new technology comes in, our company is updated about it. Our company has been investing much amount on R&DT (Research and Development Test). Our team is working on finding out new technologies and we are also trying to cope with that. We are an innovative company with global recognition for our services and products. The demand for our products in the global market justifies that our products are unique and good. 24 per cent of our business globally comes from the products that we have produced in the last three years.

Our strategy is that once people understand our technology, it will be easier for us to sell. We want to educate the customers so that they understand technology well before investing in it. This way they will invest in the right product.</div>

Product sales is good in South Asia. If we see whole South Asia, communication era started some time back. There are still more advancements to happen regarding automation. If we look at South Asia in terms of automation, only 10 percent achievement has been made. We have huge potentials to harness in the years to come. There are so many government and educational institutions that have to be automatised. 5 or10 years down the lane, Nepal and India will have automatised infrastructures. In Nepal, the telecommunication industry has already started using such technology. Therefore, Nepal has huge potential and it will definitely grow ahead.</div>',

<span style="font-size:15px;">TE Connectivity, one of the leading connectivity companies around the world, is a $13 billion world leader in the field. With nearly 90,000 employees in over 50 countries, the company designs and manufactures electronic connections for the world’s leading industries including automotive, energy and industrial, broadband communications, consumer devices, health care, aerospace and defense. On 20th December 2013, TE Connectivity officially launched itself in Nepal in a partnership with Shrestha Amrit Traders Pvt Ltd (SAT). In an interview with The Corporate’s <strong>Rashika Pokharel</strong>, TE Connectivity’s <strong>R Murugesan</strong>, Country Sales Manager, India and SAARC, talked about TE’s journey around the world and its plans in Nepal. <strong>Excerpts:</strong></span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>Tell us about TE Connectivity’s history</strong></span>.</div>
<div>
We are the global leaders in terms of connectivity and computer networking products. The company was started in 1945 and it was originally known as AMP net connectivity. In the year 1999, TYCO International took over the company and then, was known as Tyco Electronics. However, after couple of years, the company was renamed as TE Connectivity. We make connectivity products irrespective of the industries. We produce consumer appliances such as mobile phones and other household appliances. We are focusing on computer networking products and cabling products which is a lifeline for all other cabling networks. We provide cabling for office networks, data centers and large campuses. We mainly focus on Local Area Networks (LAN) though we also have wireless services. We have complete product range for telecommunication networks. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>Briefly describe about TE’s operation globally.</strong></span></div>
<div>
We manage companies in India and other SAARC countries. We have good operation in Srilanka, Bangladesh and Bhutan. We make our selling through distributors and system integrated partners. Some of our integrated partners in India are: HP, IBM, Wipro Infotech. They buy our cabling products and other networking instruments and install in customer premises. Our head quarter is in USA and have office in India also. We manage business from India. We have got 36% of market share in India.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What is the reason for choosing Nepal in particular for business expansion?</strong></span></div>
<div>
Nepal is very potential market because the telecommunication market is rising here. This is the reason we see Nepal as an important market. Future prospect is good for our company here. Since the last one year, we are focusing on Nepal’s market. We have identified SAT as our business partner. SAT will be funding our business in Nepal. The reason for our visit is to educate and inform our partner as well as the people of Nepal about our products and their usage. We have planned to focus on office networks in Nepal.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Nepal is widely known for its tourism and hospitality. They need wide networking services and we provide that. We have planned to focus on office networks and data cabling here. As offices require LAN and use fiber optic products, we are trying to supply it in Nepal. Though we officially launched TE Connectivity on 20th December this year, we have been studying the market since last year. We are doing Surya Nepal project here which is also an ICT company. Basically, we will be focusing on Banking and Financial Institutions, along with hospitality and tourism industry clients. We will be working on government projects also. We are planning to establish a connection between various districts, as part of our government project.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What is the idea behind your success? How is it different from other companies?</strong></span></div>
<div>
The first thing is that our organization is committed. Secondly, we have got right people to manage the business. Finally, it is our products. These three factors have helped our company to become successful. We understand technology very well and it is definitely a plus point for us. Moreover, we don’t believe in transactional selling, we believe in relationship building.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>The tech market has been suffering from fast changes. As such, how is TE Connectivity keeping its pace with the pace of change?</strong></span></div>
<div>
The TE Connectivity team is a part of Standard Committee and so, whenever a new technology comes in, our company is updated about it. Our company has been investing much amount on R&DT (Research and Development Test). Our team is working on finding out new technologies and we are also trying to cope with that. We are an innovative company with global recognition for our services and products. The demand for our products in the global market justifies that our products are unique and good. 24 per cent of our business globally comes from the products that we have produced in the last three years. This clearly states that we are ahead in the market and we are proud of that. Our diversity in the products is helping us to handle the market situation. Of course, there are turbulences, but we are not suffering from that. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong>What are your business strategies for Nepal?</strong></span></div>
