The new centre with 4.53 lakh square ft of space across two towers that can accommodate 2,000 employees is situated within its existing office at Bellandur and will help design and engineering work in client, data centres, graphics and automotive segments. With this new centre, Intel India has eight design centres at Hyderabad and Bengaluru.
For Intel, the India design wing is the second largest globally after the one in the USA. The chip giant, which has 13,500 employees in India, is also focusing on automotives.
Nivruti Rai, Vice President of Intel Foundry Services “Intel India is working on collision avoidance systems for the automotive industry. Intel India has been expanding and growing in the last five years. In the last two-three years there has been a supply-demand mismatch and Covid drove a lot of digitisation.”

Earlier, inaugurating the new centre, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, Union Minister of State for Electronics and IT said, “In order to enable India’s aspiration to become a trillion-dollar digital economy by 2025, it’s imperative for the country to accelerate the pace of digitalisation with focus on innovation and engineering excellence across semiconductor product design, including hardware and software.”
