Multinational Corporations
Multinational corporation (MNC) or transnational corporation (TNC) or multinational enterprise (MNE) or multinational organization (MNO)
It is a corporation/business entity/enterprise that manages production establishments or delivers services in at least two countries.
TYPE OF MNCs:- Multinational corporations (MNC) are often divided into three broad groups:-
Horizontally integrated multinational corporations Vertically integrated multinational corporations Diversified multinational corporations
Multinationals have played an important role in globalization. Given their international reach and mobility, many countries, and sometimes regions within countries, sometimes compete with each other to have MNCs locate their facilities (and subsequent tax revenue, employment, and economic activity) within.

But, 20 years from now, there will be a knowledge revolution in the world and India will participate in it because India has the highest knowledge density in the world and it is for companies to harness this knowledge capital and make Indians leaders in the knowledge revolution.”
