Chennai: Leading software development firm Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) Friday inaugurated its innovation lab here, which will design and develop software for the travel and hospitality industry. The TCS Innovation Lab for Travel & Hospitality provides a centre for airlines, hotels, resorts and travel companies, where new domain solutions can be developed and tested using the latest technologies in a cost-effective environment before enterprise-wide deployment. "The TCS innovation lab gives TCS customers 'on-demand' access to innovation, creativity and domain expertise. This will help the travel and hotel industry achieve high productivity and significant cost-savings from technology investments," said a company press release.
