His
company Infinera is to Intel what Juniper is to Cisco. The youngest son of a
diplomat, Singh grew up in India and Jamaica before settling down in Washington,
DC. His present company Infinera build world’s first, all optical integrated
circuit. According to him, one day most of circuits will shine with photons
rather than electrons. These chips will help telecom companies offer high speed
internet access. Other companies he found were Onfiber and Airsoft. During early
days of his career, Singh held technical and marketing positions at Sun and HP.
Singh holds an MS in computer science from Stanford University, an MBA from the
University of California, Berkeley, and a BS in computer science from the
University of Maryland. He is currently enrolled as a Sloan Fellow at the
Graduate School of Business at Stanford University. n
