|December 12, 2025
When Microsoft Chairman Satya Nadella walked into the hall of the Sheraton Grand at Whitefield in Bengaluru on Thursday afternoon, he got a rockstar’s welcome.
The hall erupted in applause, and phones flashed. It was a coders’ fiesta. The room remained lively till Nadella held the mic, occasionally bursting into applause and going silent again to listen to the coding giant.
“Several times during his address, the crowd broke into applause.
