Or at least, that's the impression I get from all the press that
Infosys's foreign intern programme has been getting.

I think the reason it is newsworthy is because it is different. Nobody wants
to hear about Infosys training Indian people in different skills
(though there have
been a fair number of those). For exactly the same reason, Indra Nooyi's
nomination as the Pepsico CEO was covered with much fanfare. (_Indian_

It's another story though that Infy gets a lot more press for their mundane
activities. I guess they are pretty good at PR and building a certain image.
