New Delhi, September 28: Akash Ambani, son of billionaire Mukesh Ambani and head of India’s largest telecom firm Jio, has been named in the Time100 Next — the magazine’s list of world’s rising stars. He is the only Indian on the list. There is, however, another Indian-born American business leader, Amrapali Gan, also on the list.

“The scion of Indian industrialist royalty, Akash Ambani was always expected to rise in business. But he has been putting in hard work,” Time said about him. The junior Ambani, 30, was promoted in June to the chairman of Jio, India’s largest telecom company, with over 426 ­million subscribers, after being handed a board seat at just 22. “He’s since played a key role landing multibillion-dollar investments from Google and Facebook,” it added. Akash Ambani Named in Time100 NEXT List, Reliance Jio Chairman Is Only Indian in Emerging Leaders’ List.
