Ramalinga Raju, billionaire chairman of Satyam Computer Services, says those opportunities could eventually give India 5% of the worldwide opportunities in IT and create up to 50 million jobs in the next two decades...
...still a plane spotter at heart. His office, overlooking Montreal's Dorval Airport, is brimming with models and photos of planes. He has turned his desk to face Dorval's runways, and he has binoculars within reach to see if planes are docking on time--and at the right gate. Now he has only to get Canadians to love his hobby as much as he does...
