Press Trust of India  |  New Delhi 

Satya Nadella, the India-born CEO of tech giant Microsoft, will be in next week on a two- day visit to promote his book 'Hit Refresh'.

Nadella, who will be in on November 6-7, will visit and and engage with officials, industry leaders, students and academia among other stakeholders, a spokesperson told PTI.


"The two-day trip is focused on the book. His (Nadella) engagements include meetings with customers and industry leaders across sectors, union and employees," the spokesperson added.

The company has also lined up a public event on the book with a diverse audience comprising students, academia, startups and community influencers.

Hyderabad-born Nadella, who took over as CEO in February 2014, has chronicled his personal journey, the ongoing transformation at the Redmond-based company and the wave of technological changes in his book 'Hit Refresh' that was launched in September.

The book carries a foreword by co-founder Bill Gates. It will also be available in three Indian languages -- Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil -- later this month.

All proceeds from the book will go to Philanthropies.
