New Delhi: Global engineering services company and a listed subsidiary of Larsen & Toubro Limited, L&T Technology Services Limited on Thursday inaugurated its engineering, research and development (ER&D) centre in Krakow, Poland, which will cater to global customers, leveraging technologies in the automotive, mobility and hi-tech domains.
The centre marks an expansion into Eastern Europe. The ER&D centre will cater to several major customers in Europe and North America, including a U.S.-based automotive Tier 1 company.
In the new engineering R&D Centre, LTTS will work on both software and hardware development of product lines. This centre is part of LTTS’ global delivery model and is a logical extension of LTTS’ Munich, Gothenburg and Jerusalem engineering centres, allowing the new centre to bring in specialized competencies along with local talent, the company stated.
Abhishek Sinha, Chief Operating Officer and Member of the Board, L&T Technology Services, said, “By establishing this important centre in Poland, we aim to make our customers in Europe and North America benefit from LTTS’ long-standing expertise in new age engineering and embedded technologies. We also seek to tap into the local engineering talent pool for many of our mission critical global programs, and will work with the local administration and the academia to further develop the local ecosystem. We would also like to express our gratitude for all the support we have received from government institutions and local authorities”.
LTTS plans to hire up to 300 engineers in the next three years for the centre, it said.
LTTS will also utilize its in-house Global Engineering Academy (GEA) to enable employees to reskill and upskill their domain knowledge and align it to customer requirements while exploring collaboration opportunities with AGH University Krakow, Krakow University of Technology and UK-based Coventry University to expand the engineering talent pool in Poland.
