It was no Nixon visit but neither was it Trump 1.0. The stability, predictability & mutual respect evident in the Trump-Xi summit may serve as the basis for a new, sustainable international order. My take on Trump’s 2026 journey to Beijing https://t.co/JvFkilwxxT

Some people build companies. A very small number help reshape a nation.

Narayana Murthy is firmly in the latter category — a legend among Indian entrepreneurs, and one whose influence extends far beyond business into the very fabric of modern India’s rise.
