Azim Premji

Premji, who built Wipro from his father's vegetable oil company into an IT services giant, moved from occasional giving to transferring shares at scale: in 2019 he announced that a further 34 per cent of Wipro, worth about 7.5 billion dollars, had gone to his foundation, bringing its holdings to the bulk of the company's economic value. The Azim Premji Foundation runs schools, teacher training and a university in India.
