Infosys has unveiled its latest development centre in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, to bolster local employment and promote sustainability. The 83,750-square-foot facility is designed to offer employees more flexible working arrangements.

“This centre will further our approach towards creating hybrid workplaces and also offer new opportunities to the local talent pool,” Nilanjan Roy, CFO at Infosys, said.

However, Infosys had come under fire earlier this year when it had mandated 5 days of work from office for its employees in the US and Canada.

It is poised to become a hub for fostering and developing local talent by offering them exposure to cutting-edge technologies such as Cloud computing, Artificial Intelligence, and Digital solutions—which seems to be the need of the hour with the increasing popularity of Gen AI tools like LLMs.

It paves the way for Infosys to attract and engage in a comprehensive process of upskilling and reskilling local professionals. The Visakhapatnam DC is also expected to accommodate around 1,000 employees and is constructed with an emphasis on energy and water efficiency.

The significance of this endeavour lies in its potential to bridge the gap between regional talent and global opportunities. Infosys enables them to participate in a rapidly evolving digital landscape by training and equipping local talent with expertise in these next-generation technologies. This, in turn, enhances the city’s attractiveness as a potential investment destination for global corporations looking to harness these technological advancements.

Andhra CM Jagan Mohan Reddy at the launch, stated that, “The inauguration of Infosys’ Visakhapatnam DC is a landmark moment in the city’s growth story. We acknowledge the support of Infosys in boosting the city’s IT landscape and developing its overall ecosystem through community building.”

Moreover, Infosys’ commitment to environmental sustainability aligns with global trends toward greener and more responsible business practices.

With the news of the Indian government’s considerations of a 25k GPU cluster, facilities like these would add value to India’s push in the latest tech ecosystem.
