AMD has inaugurated the company's largest global R&D center in India, as part of its $400 million investment in the country over five years.
Categorizing India as the next "tech hub" globally is something that has always been highlighted by major tech firms and startups, mainly since the region is emerging as a vital position for companies. Through extensive government incentives backed with leniency in taxation policies and relatively cheaper labor, many industry leaders have turned towards India to set up their research and development facilities, and now Team Red has joined the bandwagon, by establishing their "largest ever" R&D center in Bengaluru, India.
The inauguration was attended by government officials along with AMD's executive vice president and CTO Mark Papermaster. The Technostar campus is an effort by Team Red to boost semiconductor developments in India and focuses on bringing innovation in terms of providing customers with "more efficient computing".
We are pleased to inaugurate our largest global design center in Bengaluru today. This investment strengthens our relationship with India and showcases our confidence in the exceptional engineering talent that the country has to offer. This new design center will help propel technology and product development across the AMD portfolio, fueling the next generation of high performance, adaptive and AI computing solutions for our customers around the world.
- AMD's CTO Mark Papermaster
The Technostar center is built upon 500,000 square feet of land, which not only makes it AMD's largest R&D center, but both parties plan on 3,000 engineers in the coming years, acting as a catalyst for regional technological developments. The campus will be responsible for advancements within CPUs, GPUs, adaptive SoCs, and FPGAs for both personal computers and data centers. Moreover, the center will consist of a hefty portion of "Indian" professionals and workforce, hence showing a contribution to the "Made in India" policy, which has seen tremendous adoption in recent times.
