Voice recognition software, intuitive apps and cheap phones and cheap Wi-Fi are incredible enablers that allow people who have for generations existed on the periphery of society to become active consumers of products, media and financial products. It represents one of the biggest evolutions of a consumer demographic in history and not just because India has such a large young population.
