Jagdeep Singh

Jagdeep Singh's 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 built
world's first all optical integrated circuit. According to him, one day most
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.

Previously at Lightera, Singh served as president and CEO and
led the company from startup to a leadership position in the market for optical
switching equipment. 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.
