VMware Inaugurates Its State-Of-The-Art Campus In Bangalore


BANGALORE: VMware (NYSE: VMW), the global leader in virtualization and cloud infrastructure, today inaugurated its state-of-the-art campus in Bangalore, representing a total investment of $120 million. The new 438,000 square foot facility in South Bangalore will play a strategic role in VMwares global growth strategy for the mobile cloud era. This milestone is in line with the companys commitment to invest $500 million in India by 2017.                      

The new campus features a world-class Executive Briefing Center (EBC) to showcase VMwares entire portfolio of solutions, providing customers and partners across Asia Pacific with the opportunity to see the companys products and services in action, and discuss them face to face with executives and engineers.

Speaking at the new campus, VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger said: Today, India represents a substantial element of our global R+D operations in the U.S., and continues to play an important role in our global growth strategy. Our continued support of the India government’s ˜Make in India initiative illustrates the important role this nation plays in the company's long-term strategic global growth plans.

He added: India may be perceived as a late adopter of new technologies, but we are seeing rapid transformation here. Customers here are enthusiastically adopting our advanced cloud infrastructure and end-user computing technologies. Our customers are transitioning to a new model of IT that is fluid, instant and secure.

With a growing preference for smartphone devices amongst end users in India, VMware is also witnessing a strong interest and success for AirWatch, the industry leading enterprise mobility management and content management solution.
