Satya Narayana Nadella (born August 19, 1967) is an Indian-American business executive. He is the current Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Microsoft, succeeding Steve Ballmer in 2014. Before becoming CEO, he was the Executive Vice President of Microsoft's cloud and enterprise group, responsible for building and running the company's computing platforms.

Early life and education[edit]

Nadella was born in Hyderabad, India into a Telugu-speaking family. His father, Bukkapuram Nadella Yugandhar, was an Indian Administrative Service officer. Nadella attended the Hyderabad Public School, Begumpet before receiving a bachelor's in electrical engineering from the Manipal Institute of Technology. Nadella then traveled to the U.S. to study for an M.S. degree in Computer Science at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, receiving his degree in 1990. Later he received an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

Career at Microsoft[edit]

Nadella worked at Sun Microsystems as a member of its technology staff prior to joining Microsoft in 1992. At Microsoft, Nadella has led major projects that included the company's move to cloud computing and the development of one of the largest cloud infrastructures in the world.

Nadella's tenure as CEO of Microsoft has emphasized working with companies and technologies with which Microsoft has historically competed, including Apple Inc., Salesforce, IBM, and Dropbox. In contrast to previous Microsoft campaigns against the Linux operating system, Nadella proclaimed that "Microsoft ♥ Linux", and Microsoft joined the Linux Foundation as a Platinum member in 2016.
