Eli Lilly had the right strategy finding Ranbaxy when moving into the Indian market. In 1992, India had loosened restrictions on foreign direct investment to 51%. Both companies had good previous experience and were each considered to be strong players in the industry. Eli Lilly benefitted from the relationship immediately by accessing Ranbaxy’s distribution network including access to difficult international markets such as Russia, getting government approvals, licenses, and low cost supplies.

Bennett's changes were durable when he helped out a poor by giving money. “His [Bennett's] private secretary wrote back – and sent her five dollars.” “They asked for loans. They listed their grocery expenses and the names and birthdates of their children.” When Bennett gave the poor who sent him letters five dollars, he was able to change the poor's lifestyles by using the money to buy groceries, buy clothes or equipment that they needed.

This may put pressure on the company to attempt acquisitions at a time when the company is ill-equipped to integrate a new company into its organization, and it is engaged in a cost-cutting program at a time when it may need to invest even more in research and development (McTigue Pierce, 2005).

Eli Lilly was approached by a leading pharmaceutical firm in India to consider building a joint venture together. Ranbaxy Laboratories began as a family business in the 1960’s, but with strong entrepreneurial skills the company grew to become one of the largest manufacturers for bulk drugs and generic drugs. The two companies considered pursuing a joint venture that would support on another’s products by supplying one other with ingredients to complete company products without having to trade with other companies internationally.
