Continuous Computing Inaugurates New India Facility
Telecom Infrastructure Firm Plans to Spend $10M USD in Bangalore over the Next Three Years and Opens Contemporary Facility in New Office Park
BANGALORE — March 23, 2006 — Continuous Computing Corporation, global provider of Network Service-Ready Platforms that enable telecom equipment manufacturers to rapidly deploy converged communications, today announced the opening of a newly relocated Research and Development facility in Bangalore, India. This new facility dramatically enhances the company's presence in India and provides generous space for customer meetings, corporate events and future growth. The company originally opened an India office in July 2004 with just ten employees and now currently employs over 80 software and hardware developers.
Continuous Computing's new high-tech India facility has a sleek, modern interior design and is expected to help attract top engineering and sales talent. The 23,000 square foot office is strategically located in the 55-acre Embassy Golf Links Business Park in Bangalore. Companies such as IBM, Microsoft, ANZ IT, The Carlyle Group, Goldman Sachs and Fidelity Investments also have offices in the same business park.
"Today's office inauguration illustrates our recent growth and sets the stage for our future success," said Pradeep Malhotra, Vice President & Managing Director, Continuous Computing India Pvt. Ltd. "We are committed to our operations in India, and we expect to spend approximately $10M USD over the next three years. This new Bangalore facility serves as Continuous Computing's flagship India location for Trillium protocol software development and is also our base for pre- and post-sales support for key India and Asia-based telecom equipment manufacturer customers."
Continuous Computing has five other key strategic office locations in Asia. The company first began building its Asia Pacific presence in Seoul, Korea in February 2003, and then made further investments in the region with the opening of a Tokyo, Japan office in November 2003. In mid-2004, the company opened its first People's Republic of China office in Shanghai and then subsequently expanded into Beijing and Shenzhen in July 2005 through the acquisition of key people, products, and technology from China-based UP Technologies (China), Ltd. These six Asia office locations now employ over 200 employees and serve Continuous Computing's customers in the region's prospering telecom market.
