NEW DELHI: After Sheryl Sandberg, it's now the turn of Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg to visit India, the second biggest market for the social networking giant, later this month.

Zuckerberg, who will also meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi, will be in India to address the first Internet.org summit taking place on October 9-10 in the city.

The young billionaire is expected to meet members of other key ministries as well.

Zuckerberg is the third high profile CEO of a US-based corporation, after Amazon's Jeff Bezos and Micrsoft's Satya Nadella, to visit
India in last few days.

Internet.Org aims to make internet access affordable for people across the globe.

Focussed on enabling the next five billion people without internet access to come online, the founding members of the project
include Facebook, Ericsson, MediaTek, Nokia, Opera Qualcomm and Samsung. http://m.timesofindia.com/tech/tech-news/Facebook-CEO-Mark-Zuckerberg-to-visit-India-in-October-meet-PM-Narendra-Modi/articleshow/43971300.cms
