SAP Labs India, the research and development arm of the German software conglomerate SAP, has announced the opening of a new office in Pune. This expansion is part of SAP’s growth strategy and commitment to fostering innovation in the region.
The new office, located in the Kharadi area of Pune, will accommodate 300 employees. Sindhu Gangadharan, Senior Vice President and Managing Director of SAP Labs India, emphasized the significance of Pune in the company’s overarching growth plan. Gangadharan stated, Our expansion to a new office in Pune underscores the city’s rise as a vibrant hub for innovation and growth.
This development comes as SAP celebrates its 25th year in India, where its journey began in Bengaluru with just 150 employees. Today, the workforce has grown a hundredfold, reflecting the company’s success and commitment to the Indian market. In line with its vision for the future, SAP has also announced its intention to double its artificial intelligence (AI) talent base by 2024.
The growth of SAP in India is not limited to Pune. The company is currently constructing a new office in Bengaluru, capable of accommodating up to 15,000 employees. This new campus, located in Devanahalli near Bengaluru Airport, represents SAP’s continued investment in India and its commitment to expanding its operations.
SAP’s focus on India showcases the country’s importance as a strategic market for the software giant. By expanding its presence and tapping into India’s talented pool of professionals, SAP aims to drive innovation and deliver cutting-edge solutions to its global customer base.
The opening of the new office in Pune further solidifies SAP’s position as a key player in India’s technology landscape. With its dedication to growth, innovation, and talent development, SAP is poised to continue making significant contributions to India’s digital transformation journey.
