India’s human capital its biggest asset: Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella

“There is no denying that anyone who doesn’t tap into India’s human capital is making a choice (to) not be competitive,” according to Microsoft chairman Satya Nadella. In his second decade at the helm of one of the world’s most valuable corporations, the soft-spoken 57-year-old who has transformed the software maker into a leader in the AI race, said distinctions such as tech and non-tech will disappear as the world embraces artificial intelligence. Under his watch, Microsoft has registered a near ten-fold expansion in market capitalisation to $3.18 trillion, positioning Nadella as one of the greatest tech CEOs of all time.
