September 29, 2014 21:25

US-based global technology giant IBM today expressed keen interest in participating in India's newly-launched initiatives like Smart Cities and Digital India, as its CEO Virginia Rometty met Prime Minister Narendra Modi here.

With a global turnover of nearly $100 billion, IBM is a major player in India and employs a large workforce in the country. Nearly one-third of its global workforce of over four lakh persons is in India, where its headcount exceeds even that in the US.

The meeting between Modi and Rometty was part of a series of one-on-one meets the PM had with top business leaders of the US on his last day in New York.
