Transforming the Way the World Learns | |

| Time: 04:13 EST/09:13 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Press Release | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner | ||

Karishma Kiri was born in India, but her family moved to the United States before she was 6 years old, part of the "brain drain" that began when the emerging knowledge-based global economy started to create exciting new opportunities for scientists, engineers and other professionals from developing countries. Today, as a senior product manager in the Windows Client Product Management Group at Microsoft, Kiri is back in India helping to spearhead the Microsoft Partners in Learning initiative. Partners in Learning is providing technology access and skills-based training to primary and secondary school teachers and students in developing countries and underserved communities around the world. This week, Microsoft extended its commitment to Partners in Learning to other major nations of Asia when the company's two highest executives -- Chairman and Chief Software Architect Bill Gates and Chief Executive Office Steve Ballmer -- helped launch local initiatives in, respectively, China, Malaysia and Japan. | ||
