"His (Ratan Tata's) international forays through Tetley, Corus and Jaguar Land Rover were inspirations for me, when we decided to go beyond the comforts of our own country into Australia, Sri Lanka, Israel and now Africa," Gautam Adani wrote
Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani has called Ratan Tata "the perfect Renaissance man" in an obituary remembering one of the most brilliant entrepreneurs of his generation.
"To describe him merely as one of the greatest industrialists of our time is a gross understatement. Ratan Tata was a remarkable individual, possessing extraordinary capabilities that transcended traditional business boundaries. There is hardly any field where he has not left his mark," Mr Adani wrote in The Economic Times.
"It is no surprise that his journey and body of work have inspired legions of generational entrepreneurs, both in India and abroad. I am just one of the countless individuals who have benefited immensely from his influence. While an anatomy of his legacy will occupy thousands of pages, I am briefly sharing three major areas where he shaped my business decisions and philosophy," Mr Adani wrote of the Chairman Emeritus of Tata Sons and a philanthropist.
