Forces are combining to disrupt old orders and create exciting new opportunities. We are on the cusp of a digital-led new industrial revolution. Digital technologies give us unprecedented access allowing us to track our operations at levels previously unavailable. This helps to understand customers better, and to deliver products and services more tightly aligned to their individual needs. At the same time, we are experiencing a moment of change, as a young generation born, into a globalised world, takes its place as employees, wage earners, consumers and decision-makers. Those young people are reimagining many aspects of life. They are health conscious and demand healthier food products. They want to deal with companies that share their vision and can show a sense of purpose beyond commercial prot. They discard traditional markers of success. So we nd ourselves at a moment of transformation. It is exciting and has immense potential. At Tata Chemicals, we have prepared ourselves for this new era by restructuring our portfolio and investing in the industries of tomorrow. We have taken decisions that allow us to participate in this transformation and to begin a new era of growth. We believe it has the potential to benet all stakeholders. This integrated annual report explains in detail what we have achieved and the growth we anticipate. 4 Annual Report 2017-18 Spotlight Global footprint Financial performance Our global supply chain allows us to service our customers eectively across the world.
