The CEO of Microsoft says he is bullish about Asia, especially China and India, as Microsoft plans to build more data centers around the world.
“Absolutely. We’re very, very bullish about what’s happening in Asia,” Satya Nadella, chairman and CEO of Microsoft, told CNBC’s Tanvir Gill in an interview Thursday, adding that Microsoft is investing in at least 11 regions.
“We’re absolutely committed to all of these countries and in China too. Today, we primarily work to support multinational companies that operate in China and multinational companies out of China.”
He also added that India has been a “massive growth market” after emerging from the pandemic.
“Microsoft’s presence in India was about mostly multinational companies operating in India. But for now, it’s completely changed,” he said.
