Hackathon planned
HCL Technologies has opened a new office in the center of Paris, to support further growth in France to chart its growth in the French market.
Celebrating 10 years with French customers, HCL said it signifies its empowered vision for the future and accelerated growth journey in France.
HCL also launched a unique advocacy led program in Paris. The Digital Disruption Decoded forum brought together international experts from leading organizations, local universities and government to jointly set impulses for society and economy in the digital age.
Additionally, HCL has a slate of exciting innovation initiatives planned for next year. These include a Hackathon, which will offer an opportunity for HCL’s customers to embark on a transformational journey and develop technology solutions for the next decade.
“During our 10 years in France, we’ve been committed to co-creating a shared future through relationships and investments that ignite unified growth,” said Sandeep Saxena, Executive Vice President, HCL Technologies.
“We’ve established a significant number of long-term engagements with some of France’s biggest and best-known brands, through our vision of empowering trust and technology.
“This success has been driven by our continued focus on our local facilities and developing a local talent-based delivery organization. Today, as we look ahead to the next 10 years, we stand ready to unlock the true potential of our strategic partnerships and local talent,” Saxena said on 7 Oct 2019.
