With the length and breadth of innovations we are witnessing, India’s vision of a $350 billion industry by 2025 is eminently within the realms of possibility. I look forward to working closely with NASSCOM member companies, the government, and other stakeholders to continue our endeavour to foster growth by leveraging the potential of Cloud and other emerging technologies. We aim to create inclusive, impact-led innovation and help India become the leading global hub for digital talent,” Krishnan Ramanujam said.

“A distinctly accomplished and thought leader, Krishnan, with his unique perspective and visionary outlook towards the future of Indian IT, will help lead the sector in a time of uncertainty and opportunities.
