Communications move at astonishing speed along a global network (much of it underwater) owned wholly or in partnership by Tata Communications, one of the largest telecommunications businesses in the world and a model company for globalization. In this episode of World Ocean Radio, host Peter Neill will discuss the company's structure, reach, profits, philanthropy and value--measures of worth that are impressive, dynamic and worthy of closer examination as an illustration of a corporate conglomerate worthy of emulation.
