And all this has been a long journey for Nandan. It all started in the year 1955 in Bangalore, where Nandan was born. But he shifted to Dharwad to stay with his uncle at the age of twelve. In the year 1973 he joined IIT-Mumbai. After passing out from IIT, Nandan began his professional career at Patni computers in the year 1978. Having served there for three years he moved out of the company along with Narayan Murthy and five others, and laid the foundations of Infosys in the year 1981. Since then he has been on Infosys’ board. In March 2002 he was conferred the post of CEO. Nandan truly represented the company abroad and was pivotal in marketing Infosys outside the country. In August this year, Nandan took over the reins of the company after Narayan Murthy retired. Taking the place of the legendary Narayan Murthy has been one of the defining moments of his career.

Nandan has been featured in Time magazine’s prestigious list of ‘100 most influential people of the world’ (2006) and is the 33rd richest person (Forbes Magazine, 2006) in India with a net worth of $1.15 billion. He has recently also been appointed to the Reuters board.

Today, few would disagree with the fact that Nandan has not only led his company to the heights of success but also given India a new identity globally. Truly, a blend that one seldom finds!
