Miami Connection
In February 2014, Nadella participated in a Microsoft YouthSpark Connection panel in Miami, supporting Miami-Dade County Public Schools—the fourth-largest school district in the U.S.—in its initiative to close the digital divide by deploying 100,000 Windows 8 devices to students. Through this partnership, Microsoft and Nadella's leadership have contributed to expanding technology access and educational opportunities in South Florida.
