Outsourcing India bandwagon continues - Centillium broadens scope of R&D operations in India
The outsourcing boom around the new high tech capital of the world – Bangalore continues.
Centillium Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:CTLM), a leading provider of broadband access solutions, is broadening the scope of its research and development (R&D) operations in Bangalore, India. The world-class R&D site serves as the company's Center of Technical Excellence for development of its complete, end-to-end DSL, voice-over-IP (VoIP) and fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) system-on-chip (SoC) solutions that enable "last mile" delivery of leading-edge capabilities -- including premium services such as HDTV, video-on-demand, VoIP and other applications -- to subscribers.
Centillium began its operations in India in 2000 with a small technical staff. Today, the company has 155 engineers, senior managers and consultants working in a state-of-the-art facility in Bangalore that is developing some of the broadband access industry's most exciting and innovative technologies. The Centillium Bangalore team is engaged in the full product development cycle from architecture definition to customer engagement. Centillium is one of a few companies in India that provides its engineers and managers the unique opportunity to gain an in-depth understanding of industry-leading technologies, get involved in all stages of developing sophisticated SoC products, and market them to the leading global communications systems vendors.
"Today, our operations in Bangalore are growing and represent a full R&D infrastructure that is ready to support Centillium's expanding product portfolio and customer base," said Centillium CEO Faraj Aalaei, during a recent visit to Bangalore. "The R&D work being done in India is a critical element in our strategy to expand the scope of our product offerings in the DSL, VoIP and optical markets worldwide; and each member of our Bangalore staff is a significant contributor to the development of Centillium's flagship products for major customers across the globe. We are very glad to contribute to the training and development of the next generation of India's top technologists and business leaders."
C.S. Mohan, vice president and general manager, Centillium India Private Limited, noted that the close personal involvement of Centillium corporate executives in Bangalore activities has been a key factor in the company's R&D success. "Our strong working relationship with Centillium's top executive management opens the door to innovating products that meet real-life customer needs," Mohan noted. "Bangalore is involved in all stages of Centillium's product development -- including chip architecture, design, verification, physical design, firmware and system software development. This wide-ranging R&D effort makes Centillium one of the few U.S. companies in India that involves its engineers and managers in multiple aspects of its operations from product development to marketing and customer support."
