It's been 33 years since a prime minister of India visited California. That was before the Internet was a household word and iPhones were in our back pockets. This weekend, Narendra Modi comes to Silicon Valley to court tech investors. He'll find a robust community of Indian-American startup founders that didn't exist when the last prime minister visited. They're among the 6 million immigrants who are fueling California's economy.
