IBM to expand their operations in India and China

US based tech giant IBM has said that they are planning to set up two new IT solutions centers in India and China.

This further showcases the company’s commitment to the Asian market where they are expanding their operations at a rapid pace.

These new centers would be setup in Beijing and Pune and each would employ 500 people. The company also recently relocated its global procurement headquarters to Shenzhen in southern China.

Jeby Cherian, director of IBM’s global business solutions center added: “The centers position us strongly to take advantage of what we see as a $160 billion market in service oriented architecture. The other underlying story is it demonstrates IBM’s commitment to the emerging markets of China and India.”
