While presenting Nadella his game, the boy shared his vision to ‘balance industrial growth and agriculture so that you can control pollution and the rate of growth so that an economy can sustain.’ Medansh left Nadella so impressed that the CEO included the boy in his keynote speech. 

He said, “I met an eight-year-old, and this is perhaps the time where I felt the most inadequate.
