Engineering centre adds to global coverage
Asian giant Infosys has boosted its engineering footprint in Eastern Europe by opening its first office and delivery centre in Karlovac, Croatia. In line with the company's strategy to establish global competency centres, offering the best talent in the market and making it available to customers globally, this DC also marks expansion into Eastern Europe's established heavy engineering sector. The new facility will meet near-shoring requirements, support engineering clients worldwide, as well as offer R&D services, it says. Ravi Kumar S., President and Deputy Chief Operating Officer, Infosys: "As part of our strategy to increase geo capabilities, the Karlovac delivery centre will deliver value to our global clients, specifically in the Nordics. The focus will be on consolidating consulting, IT and engineering skills in the areas of power generation, design and development of large gas and steam turbines, digital solutions for service and maintenance, and development of advanced engineering software tools. As we continue to invest in developing global competency centers, tapping local talent and scaling those centers, we will be looking to partner with local academic institutions, co-innovate with clients and nurture a partner ecosystem to help develop skilled workforce that will deliver next-generation services." The Karlovac facility in Croatia is the latest location across 16 regions in Europe which Infosys has opened as part of its ongoing commitment to client servicing and local job creation, it says.
