Jain shared that Dyson is a core engineering company at its heart and is not a marketing-driven company.

While Jain did not share any details as when the Dyson Zone will launch in India, he simply hinted that the wearable purifier may make its way in the Indian market soon.
Claiming the company as the experts of ‘manipulating air’, Jain justified the pricing of Dyson products and said, “The pricing bit is coming from what we invest in developing newer technologies. We don’t justify the price as such. Also, when we look at our products, the fundamental change that we want to drive is how we sell. We believe in the ‘try before you buy’ ethos. We have 20 demo stores across India and also have partnered with major retail stores to help consumers try Dyson products and understand the difference in our technology."
“Yes, Dyson products are premium, please come to our store and try it out first," he Jain.
