Mukesh Ambani belongs to the record of technology as a figure whose work outlasted the moment that produced it.
The record lists Mukesh Ambani as Indian businessman.
Mukesh Ambani was born at Aden in 1957. His recorded nationality is India. He was educated at University of Mumbai and Stanford University.
The twentieth century made work collective, expensive and political, with consequences that reached well beyond the people doing it.
He worked as entrepreneur, businessperson and graphic designer.
Technology is judged by adoption: an invention nobody uses is a curiosity.
His work was formally recognised with the Othmer Gold Medal.
That the work was done from India matters. Opportunity has never been evenly distributed, and where a person is based shapes which doors open and whose work gets seen.
Mukesh Ambani is still at work, and the final assessment has not been made - the ordinary condition of a living career.
