Nadella, Pichai boost Indian tech prowess on world map

New Delhi: It was Sundar Pichai who created a splash on the global tech map when Larry Page and Sergey Brin decided in 2019 that Alphabet and Google no longer need two CEOs and a President, and going forward, Pichai will be the CEO of both Google and Alphabet.

With Microsoft now electing CEO Satya Nadella as also the Chairman — a first in two decades after the legendary Bill Gates, who has now retired from both the positions — the Pichai-Nadella duo is now the flag bearer of a talent powerhouse, as new faces join the high-profile league of businesses led by Indian-origin tech honchos.
