US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti praised Indian immigrants, stating that 1 in 10 CEOs of Fortune 500 companies are Indian immigrants who studied in the US.
He humorously remarked that the old joke about Indians not becoming CEOs in America has been reversed, highlighting their significant contributions to companies like Google, Microsoft, and Starbucks.
Garcetti assured Indian parents of students studying in the US about their safety and well-being, emphasizing the country's commitment to supporting them. He underscored the availability of resources, including mental health support, for students far from home.
