The Microsoft CEO, who recently met Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his visit to the Silicon Valley extended his support to the Digital India initiative, reported The Economic Times.

Along with Nadella, some other Indian business leaders too are expected to speak at the ‘Future Unleashed’ conclave. The event will be a showcase for Microsoft’s cutting-edge technology and what it can offer in the context of Digital India.
