Its my own idea and its my own presentation.....I dedicate this to my wipro
->AZIM PREMJI
Azim Premji (born July 24, 1946), an Indian born Ismaili Muslim businessman, is the Chairman & CEO of Wipro, one of the largest software companies in India. It is headquartered in Bangalore, "the Indian Silicon City". Azim Premji was rated the richest person in the country from 1999 to 2005 by Forbes. His wealth today is estimated at $12.7 Billion which places him as the sixth richest Indian
EARLY LIFE
Premji attended St. Mary's School I.C.S.E. in Mazagaon, Mumbai. Premji was just finishing his undergraduate engineering studies at Stanford University in 1966 when his father passed away. He immediately returned to India where he took over the family's fledgling vegetable oil business. Premji started off with a simple vision: to build an organization on a foundation of values. Premji eventually received permission to take correspondence art courses to complete the requirements for his bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering.
AWARDS AND ACCOLADES
In 2000, he was conferred an honorary doctorate by the Manipal Academy of Higher Education. He was also declared the Businessman of the Year 2000 by Business India and is featured in the Business Weeks all-time top 30 entrepreneurs of the world in 2007. He is a member of the Prime Minister's Advisory Committee for Information Technology in India.
As of October 6, 2007, he is the 5th richest Indian, with a net worth of $13.6 billion
FAMILY & PERSONAL LIFE
Premji is married to Yasmeen, the couple have two children, Rishad and Tariq. Rishad is married to Aditi.
Premji is known for his modesty and frugality in spite of his wealth. He drives a Toyota Corolla and flies economy class, prefers to stay in company guest houses rather than luxury hotels and even served food on paper plates at a lunch honouring his son's wedding.
AZIM PREMJI FOUNDATION
The Azim Premji Foundation says it "Aims at making a tangible impact on identified social issues by working in active partnership with the Government and other related sectors of society". The Foundation was set up with financial resources contributed by Azim Premji. Programmes of the Azim Premji Foundation focus on "creating effective and scalable models that significantly improve the quality of learning in the school and ensure satisfactory ownership by the community in the management of the school". Azim Premji Foundation says it "dedicates itself to the cause of Universalization of Elementary Education in India". The organisation has over the years been instrumental in improving the quality of general education, particularly in rural schools.
Citing a technology initiative, the Foundation reported: "Think of a single PC with three display terminals, three keyboards and three 'mouses', which can be simultaneou
sly used as if they are three independent computers". This innovative idea from the Azim Premji Foundation is being deployed in the computer aided learning centre at the Byatarayanapura Higher Primary School in Bangalore South District and in another school.
Five new titles of educational CDs for Indian schools were produced earlier in 2005. They are: Friendly Animals and Journey on the Clouds (English), Swatantra Divas, Fun with Chinchoo in Mathematics and Khel-Mel (Hindi), released in February 2005. With these, the total number of master titles available is 70.
There are now 68 titles in Karnataka, 42 for Andhra Pradesh, 35 for Tamil Nadu and Pondicherry, 18 for Urdu medium schools, six for Orissa, 14 for Gujarat, 3 for Punjab and 1 for Kerala.
This Foundation is also involved in computer-based assessment in Andhra Pradesh (50,000 students took part in early 2005), a learning guarantee programme, and a policy planning unit in Karnataka.

SEMICONDUCTORS
Set-top boxes, mobile phones, smart card readers, power windows in cars, white goods, laptops, hearing aid devices, portable media players, hand-held billing devices and energy meters - What do all of them have in common? The answer is they are all powered by semiconductors. To say that semiconductors are ubiquitous would not be an understatement - to call them 'the oil of the information age' would drive home the point how important they are in WIPRO's daily lives. With the electronics market exploding and with semiconductor consumption booming worldwide, the tremendous opportunity for semiconductor companies also brings with it the increasing pressure to keep pace with the shortening development cycles and the need for newer and more innovative products. However not all the products that hit the market are successful since the consumer today is extremely particular about price and performance leaving semiconductor companies to grapple with the triple challenges of increasing complexity, shorter timelines and increasing risk. The Semiconductor Group at Wipro Technologies has developed the requisite skill sets and industry specific solutions and today provides complete Product Engineering Solutions meeting critical time-to-market demands of customers with design reliability, scalability and upgradeability.The offerings include:

->BIRTH OF WIPRO
Wipro was set up in 1945. Primarily an edible oil factory, the chief products were Sunflower Vanaspati and 787 laundry soap (a by-product of the Vanaspati operations). The company was called Western India Vegetable Products Limited; it had a minor presence in Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh. In the 1970s and 1980s , it began to expand and made forays into computing. In 1975, Wipro marketed India's first homegrown PC.
Wipro was the sole representative for Sun Microsystems in India, before the Sun liaison office was set up in India, in the early 1990s.
Wipro is the highest-ranked Indian IT provider by International Association of Outsourcing Professionals.
Wipro and its success in handling outsourced information technology from US businesses is detailed in Thomas L. Friedman's best-selling book The World Is Flat and Steve Hamm's Bangalore Tiger. Wipro's offshore model is considered 'unique among the larger players in the security consulting space' according to an independent report by Forrester Research.
