Zoom Video Communications, Inc. has announced the setting up of a second technology centre in Chennai, reiterating its commitment to India.
The Chennai technology centre is part of Zoom’s expansion plans in India and will supplement the existing technology center in Bangalore, in addition to the two data centres in Mumbai and Hyderabad. The company also plans to gear up its hiring in India through 2022, tapping India’s exceptional talent pool to continue on its growth and innovation trajectory.
Like the technology centre in Bangalore launched in 2020, the new Chennai technology centre will play a vital role as a source of innovation for Zoom. The technology centre will focus on research and development of new products including Zoom Contact Center and cutting-edge technologies to build a communications platform that will mimic real-life immersive experiences for users, as businesses around the world shift toward a hybrid format. The Chennai facility will be led by Zoom’s global engineering teams based at the company’s San Jose, California headquarters.
