Indian Participation within the British Economy

“Throughout its history Britain’s population has been enriched by successive inflows of migrants and each flow has made a substantial contribution to the economic social political and cultural development of the country.” Compared to other South Asian communities in the United Kingdom the Indian Community is considered as being the best educated qualified and law abiding. It appears that India has but converted itself into a generic supplier of skills to Britain. In this book we will seek to find an answer to the following problematic: Can we say that the Indian Community is integrated in the British economy? If yes what are the main factors? We will analyze the positive effects that Indian community brought to UK’s economic growth and innovation. In particular we will seek to provide evidence of the transformative power that the Indian community wielded on the country’s entrepreneurial and business activity.
