Meet Rohan Murthy, Son Of Narayana And Sudha Murthy: Know His Net Worth, Education, Business And More

In the Indian tech industry, Narayana Murthy's name is synonymous with Infosys, the IT titan he co-founded. But for Rohan Murthy, his father's legacy wasn't a pre-defined path. This is the story of how he carved his own niche, blending academic brilliance with entrepreneurial drive, all while diving headfirst into the world of AI.

Rohan Murthy’s Education

Rohan's journey began in the halls of Bangalore's Bishop Cotton Boys' School. But his thirst for knowledge didn't end there. He set his sights on the prestigious Cornell University in New York, where he aced a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science.

His quest for knowledge continued at Harvard University, where he earned a PhD in computer engineering, as reported by GQ India. While textbooks were his companions, his brilliance shone through, bagging him several awards for his work on distributed systems and whitespaces networking, according to GQ India.

Infosys, the company his father co-founded, could have been a natural launchpad for Rohan's career. However, this young man craved the thrill of building something from scratch. In 2014, he made a bold decision and he stepped down as Vice President at Infosys to start his new entrepreneurial adventure, as per GQ India.

Rohan, along with his fellow computer scientist companions Arjun Narayan and George Nychis, founded Soroco. This company became their brainchild, a platform where cutting-edge AI technology would be the driving force, according to GQ India. Their vision was clear to harness the power of AI and make a significant impact in the ever-evolving tech landscape.
