Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella said Microsoft would like to work with T-Hub to develop accelerators and startups.
T-Hub, billed as India’s largest technology incubator is built with collaborative efforts from the Indian School of Business (ISB), the International Institute of Information Technology (IIIT-Hyderabad) and NALSAR University of Law, besides various other organisations. The Telangana government has put in Rs 40 crore on the 70,000 sq ft for facility and has been constructed on the IIIT-H campus.
“Indian talent in the area is dramatically growing and we can see their dominance in the field,” he said while addressing entrepreneurs at the incubation centre.
Nadella said that Microsoft’s goal and dream is to empower local entrepreneurs to solve last mile connectivity. He told the startups that his energy comes from the interaction with entrepreneurs across the world.
“There are three points to success – concept, capability, culture. Learn more from day one…chase after your concept or idea. Improve your capability to chase the idea…Curate the culture,” he told entrepreneurs in an inspirational talk.
To a query, he said the importance of failure lies in learning from failure.
Telangana’s Information and Technology Minister, K.T. Rama Rao took him around the T-Hub and explained about various initiatives of the government.
Earlier, Nadella met Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu.
