The Story So Far

Over the years, Premji diversified into sectors like computer hardware and lighting, disregarding marketing laws that extolled the virtues of core competence and frowned on brand extensions into unrelated segments. Despite all the success, the media-shy Premji maintained a low profile, letting his work do all the talking. Until early last year the media broke the story that Azim Premji had become the second-richest man in the world. In spite of his billions, however, he still travels economy class and stays in budget hotels.

Azim premji has received many honors and accolades, which he believes are recognitions for each person who contributed to wipro.

He was named by fortune (August 2003) as one of the 25 most powerful business leader outside the U.S.

Forbes (march 2003) listed him as one of ten people globally, who have the most “POWER TO EFFECT CHANGE”.

Business week featured (October 2003) him on their cover with the sobriquet “INDIA’s TECH KING”

He is also a member of the Prime Minister’s Advisory Committee for Information Technology in India.

Government of India conferred “PADMA BHUSHAN” on 26th Jan.2005 to Premji.

In the year 2001 premji established Azim premji foundation, a not- for- profit

organization with a vision on influencing the lives of millions of children in India by

facilitating the universalisation of elementary education.

Premji believes that education will produce citizens who have just , humane and equitable outlook to life. The current

foundation of Azim premji cover over 5000 rural schools.

The great man then shared some tips for success:

• Have the courage to think big.

• Never compromise on fundamental values, no matter what the situation.

• Build up self-confidence, always look ahead.

• Always have the best around you, even if they are better than you are.
