‘World has lost sterling tech visionary’

Mr Lakshmi Narayanan, Vice-Chairman, Cognizant, “In the sad demise of Steve Jobs, the world has lost a sterling technology visionary and entrepreneur who thought well ahead of his time, challenged conventions and stereotypes, and pushed the envelope of innovation like few others. More than the novel gadgets he pioneered as breathtaking combinations of art and technology, his legacy will be the sheer brilliance of the myriad ways in which he helped the world experience and appreciate its digital future with a sense of profound expectation and wonderment. In many ways, he personified the power of dreaming big as an instrument of effecting positive, unprecedented change. As someone who almost single-handedly transformed the world of computing and redefined the concept of pocket devices, Jobs will continue to be a great source of inspiration for generations to come.’’
