Apple CEO Tim Cook called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi here today. The duo had a one-on-one meeting at Hotel Fairmont here.
“Dialling India for Digital. An exciting evening begins, as Apple CEO @tim_cook calls on PM @narendramodi,” tweeted Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) official spokesperson Vikas Swarup.
“We have a unique tie with India. Our founder Steve Jobs went to India for inspiration. Apple CEO @tim_cook tells PM,” he said in another tweet.
Reports suggest that Apple is looking to invest in building manufacturing capacities in India, which could come as a major boost for Prime Minister Modi’s ‘Make in India’ project.
The Prime Minister earlier visited the plant of Tesla Motors in California’s Palo Alto.
