Mr Premji is the first Indian to receive the Faraday Medal. Presenting the medal, Sir Robin Saxby, Chairman of the UK-based ARM Technologies, said that the award was in recognition of his outstanding business leadership and contribution to the elementary education in India. "The medal is actually a recognition of the untiring contribution made by the software engineers at Wipro and the Indian software community in general towards global technology," Mr Premji said, accepting the medal. The Faraday Medal in bronze was established in 1922 to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the first Ordinary Meeting of the Society of Telegraph Engineers (now IEE).
