Strategic Consulting

Living India is constantly on the lookout for potential and opportunities for current, new and prospective clients. I take the lead in determining the requirements in Germany and other European countries, and, through my extensive network, establish an accurate match with potential German and other European partners.

Intercultural Knowledge Transfer

The modularity and scalability of the information we provide is a top priority for Living India. No matter whether you opt for in-house training or workshops, teletraining or telecoaching, it will be tailored to your needs.

Network

Well established contacts are very important today. Not only in India. Due to my longterm relationships within Europe and India it is very easy for me to find the right people and companies for you according the development of your direction.

Integral Aspects

Integral means inclusive, balanced, comprehensive. Diverse perspectives provide for an extended and more holistic perception of an issue, allowing for new and unconventional solutions to various issues.

Don’t adapt cultures, but benefit from diversity.

Hello.

My name is Purvi Shah-Paulini, owner of Living India. I was born in Stuttgart, Germany and have deep Indian roots.

I am as conversant in German as in Gujarati, my native language. Due to my Indian upbringing in Germany, my frequent visits to India, accompanying delegations and my deep insights into Indian and German corporate structures, I am a qualified mediator for successful bilateral negotiations.

Extensive marketing and sales expertise

My extensive marketing and sales expertise, which I acquired during my MBA studies at the Nuertingen-Geislingen University of Applied Sciences among others, and my experience with the peculiarities of corporate and negotiation cultures make me an ideal consultant for the positioning of different products ...

My philosophy

My line of work is not about eliminating differences but about developing an understanding of the mindsets involved, from which both parties can benefit.
Sustainable entrepreneurial success is ultimately always a question of mutuality.

Mutual discovery as a bridge to understanding

In the course of advising and presenting seminars, I have been and still am concerned with further clarifying and questioning my customers’ self and external perception of India and Germany.

“During the preparations and the realization of the intensive 1-day training as pre-arrangement for my business trip to India, Mrs. Purvi Shah-Paulini was able to relieve my inquisitiveness. Due to her history and origin she was able to answer all my questions in an accurate and precise manner regarding the work day life of sensitive business rituals. She has a pleasant and friendly manner of teaching. Due to her capability to adjust herself to her counterpart it was always very exciting. If required, I would implicitly book a training with Mrs. Shah-Paulini again and can recommend this also to other interested parties.”
