Kolkata, March 24: Mindtree, a global digital transformation company, here on Thursday announced the inauguration of its first development center. Despite the pandemic, Mindtree has been recruiting talent in the city for over a year and already employs more than 1,000 professionals in the city, Mindtree CEO and MD Debashis Chatterjee said. The company is aggressively adding to its team in Kolkata and expects to double its headcount in the city in the next financial year, he said.
The 56,000 sq ft facility is compliant with LEED standards of environmentally sustainable operations, and has been designed as an agile workplace to enable greater collaboration, innovation and creativity, Chatterjee said. From Kolkata, the company is providing digital solutioning, consulting, cloud, core modernization, product engineering, business intelligence, data analytics, CRM platform, and cybersecurity services to some of the world’s largest companies, he said.
The center is the result of the company’s continued investments in cutting-edge talent and infrastructure to meet the robust global demand for its services, Chatterjee said. “Our focus is on leveraging our domain and technology leadership, global client footprint, progressive people practices, and close collaboration with academia to create future-ready talent and fast-paced careers in the city,” he said. “Access to new-age talent is one of firm’s key differentiators. Kolkata will play an important role in turning that into an even stronger competitive advantage for us. We look forward to growing our infrastructure and operations in the city as we build upon our industry-leading growth momentum,” Chatterjee added. UNI
