India’s biggest IT company TCS set up operations in Poland in 2006.The company’s Polish expansion is said to be indicative of its wider unparalleled commitment to the European market, where TCS has had a presence for more than 45 years.
What makes Poland an important region for TCS
Poland is home to one of the largest European technology talent pools and the centre will tap into the growing Polish Information and Communication Technology (ICT) talent pool to support the needs of customers in niche technology skills and cognitive business and domain processes. It forms a part of TCS’ European delivery network, which facilitates the delivery of hyper-connected services to its customers across Europe. This ensures that all TCS customers globally benefit from consistent, near-shore experiences tailored to their unique cultural, compliance, language, and technological requirements. The centre was inaugurated by the Indian Ambassador to Poland Nagma Mallick, TCS’ head of Europe Sapthagiri Chapalapalli and General Manager for TCS in Eastern Europe Prabal Datta.
European governments are also facing ambitious growth targets for digital skills, infrastructures and business capabilities by 2030 to uphold the region’s competitiveness at the forefront of enterprise and innovation. TCS’ European investment strategically reflects this need, and the company has been steadily expanding its European near-shore delivery capabilities. It recently opened a new Aviation Digital Centre in Lisbon with Portugal’s national airline TAP and expanded its TCS Pace™ innovation network with its new Pace Studio in Stockholm. TCS recently inaugurated a first-of-its-kind AI Centre of Excellence at its Paris Pace PortTM.
Nagma Mallick, Indian Ambassador to Poland, said, “I am proud to witness this milestone event. This event marks a new chapter in the expansion of India’s IT prowess in Poland and further strengthens the economic ties between our two nations. It is a gratifying moment for both TCS and the Embassy of India in Poland.”
Sapthagiri Chapalapalli, Head of Europe, TCS, said, “Poland is a strategic location for TCS, and we are proud of our long-standing commitment to the region. For nearly twenty years, TCS has been establishing solid partnerships with prominent Polish and global companies. Our decision to invest and scale our presence demonstrates our faith in the Polish economy and the exceptional talent available here to support our customers across the world.”
