Indian IT R&D, service centre in Poland

Indian integrated solutions provider Wipro Technologies will open a European research & development and service centre in Wroclaw, southwest Poland.



The company will employ over 200 Polish and international IT specialists who can speak English and German, Gazeta Wyborcza daily has found out unofficially.



‘Our IT specialists will try to find out how to manage people’s work in corporations more effectively using sophisticated applications,’ an anonymous negotiator has revealed.



The newspaper’s sources also reveal that the new investment to be conducted in co-operation with the Credit Suisse Group will be announced at a joint press conference by the Mayor of Wroclaw Rafal Dutkiewicz and Ambassador of India to Poland Chandra Mohan Bhandari.



When asked about the new IT centre, the Wroclaw Town Hall told journalists to ‘wait till Monday’. The Wipro Technologies HQ in Bangalore, India has also refused any comments.


When Wipro Technologies was established in 1945, it was predominantly a vegetable producer, but the owner of the company Azim Premji transformed it into a global supplied of IT solutions. In 2007, its revenues amounted to 5 billion US dollars.
