Azim Premji, Wipro chairman and one of the richest people in the world, with a wealth put at $12.7bn, came to Romania for one day at the end of last week, to visit the BPO centre he owns in Bucharest.
The arrival in Romania of Azim Premji - the man the international press has named "India's Bill Gates", comes as no surprise and indicates Bucharest is on the billionaire's list of priorities. Wipro, a leader in the global IT industry and India's biggest software firm, with annual sales of 5bn dollars, is just present in Romania with the BPO unit, which currently employs 150 Romanians.
In the coming months, Premji plans to bring the IT development unit to Romania.
"We also want to bring the software development unit to Romania.
The next step is to bring the technological infrastructure unit at least. This will happen in the next three to six months".
