Dehradun has rapidly emerged as major hub for technology-IT industry, says Vijh
Hexaware Technologies, a leading global IT services and solutions company with 40 offices in 19 countries, has added newly opened Dehradun office to its global delivery network to bolster the brand’s capabilities to deliver cutting-edge Digital IT services to its customers across sectors and geographies.
“This office launch comes as a part of Hexaware’s shift in business strategy announced last year, driven towards setting up centers in smaller cities with vast potential and talent pools,” Hexaware said in a release on 16 Oct 2023.
The selection of Dehradun is attributed to several factors, including its proximity to major metropolitan centers, robust air and road connectivity, recognition as an educational hub, and a highly skilled IT workforce.
Speaking on the launch of the office, the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Pushkar Singh Dhami, said, “The groundwork laid by the government over the years has turned Uttarakhand into a dream destination for IT and ITeS companies.
“The entire machinery is working hard to attract investments, and the arrival of a leading player like Hexaware is a testimony of Uttarakhand’s growth potential.”
Hexaware Technologies CEO R Srikrishna elaborated, “The expansion, particularly in smaller cities, is an integral part of our core strategy. And with this new launch, we continue to expand our global delivery footprint for the sustained growth of the company.
“We think ‘Small is the new Big’ and are very confident that the all-new Dehradun center will allow us to explore new talent pools and provide IT professionals with opportunities to serve our global clients.”
Primarily, the center will serve as a dynamic 24/7 global operations hub, an extension of Hexaware’s shared IT services. Notably, Hexaware’s digital IT operations (DITO) will be orchestrated from this Dehradun facility, solidifying its commitment to innovation and excellence in the digital realm.
Further, in a commitment to talent development, Hexaware will not only engage IT professionals in serving its global clientele but will also seek individuals with strong communication skills and foundational IT expertise.
“Dehradun, an education hub, has rapidly emerged as a major hub for the technology and IT industry over the past few years. The city has the potential to serve with a skilled workforce, which the thriving IT sector is in dire need of,” added Hemant Vijh, EVP & COO Digital ITO at Hexaware Technologies.
“We at Hexaware Technologies are absolutely thrilled to launch a new office in this promising city and are committed to bringing some great opportunities for the local talent,” said Vijh. Fiinews.com
