Nadella was in India last December. He had met Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu and visited the campus of startup incubator T-hub and Microsoft development centre in Hyderabad.
In November, he had delivered a keynote address at Microsoft’s ‘Future Unleashed’ event in Mumbai and met industry leaders like Mahindra Group chairman Anand Mahindra and Axis Bank managing director Shikha Sharma.
Nadella’s visit comes close on the heels of Apple CEO Tim Cook’s India tour earlier this month. In his four-day visit to India, Tim Cook met Prime Minister Narendra Modi, opened an Apple office in Hyderabad and also met prominent Bollywood celebrities.
