    Mission or Vision??
    Kiran Mazumdar Shaw personally did not believe in vision

    She believed more in missions rather than vision.

    Her mission was to build a biotech company that would be


    respected globally.

    And most importantly, she wanted to change perception that


    India is not capable of a research-based business.

    To her, a leader should have more missions than vision.

    According to her, all leaders should be passionate about their


    sense of purpose.
    Quotes about Vision and
    Mission..
    All leaders need not be visionaries and all visionaries need not
    be leaders.

    There can be a leader without vision but there cant be a leader


    without mission.

    I believe that more than being a visionary, a leader must inspire


    people, help them share their ideas and aspirations.

    The vision concept is hyped and overstretched.


    Journey of Bioconunder her
    wings..
    In 1978, she joined Biocon Biochemicals Limited, of Cork, Ireland
    as a Trainee Manager.

    In 1978 itself, she started Biocon in he garage in Bangalore with


    a capital of Rs. 10,000.

    Within a year, Biocon became the first Indian company to


    manufacture and export enzymes to USA and Europe.

    In 1990, she upgraded Biocons in-house research program,


    based on a proprietary solid substrate fermentation technology.

    The commercial success of this program led to a three-fold


    expansion by 1996 and Biocon entered the biopharmaceuticals
    and statins segments

    In 1998, when Unilever agreed to sell its shareholding in Biocon


    to the Indian promoters, Biocon became an independent entity.
    In 2000, Biocon's proprietary bioreactor, christened PlafractorTM,
    based on solid matrix fermentation received a U.S. patent.

    By 2003 Biocon became the first company worldwide to develop


    human insulin on a Pichia expression system.

    In 2004, she decided to access the capital markets to develop


    Biocons pipeline of research programs.

    Biocons IPO was oversubscribed 32 times and its first day at the
    bourses closed with a market value of $1.11 billion.

    It made Biocon the 2nd nd only company to cross $1 billion mark on

    the first day of listing.
