Infosys is setting up a centre for remote infrastructure management services (IMS) in Prague. This centre will be the fifth for Infosys and the first outside India.
Priti Rao, VP, IMS, Infosys, said: “This business has been growing rapidly for us in the past five years and we contribute around million to the total revenues of Infosys. We have around 2,000 people in this line of business and we intend to grow at 35 per cent year on year.”
Infosys, currently serves 70 global clients from centres in Pune, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Chennai. The new centre in Prague will become functional by April 2006 and will employ around 50 people in a year's time. “Infosys already has a presence in Prague through Progeon and we do not have to build the centre from scratch,” Rao noted.
She further added that infrastructure outsourcing is gaining ground globally and is throwing open tremendous opportunities locally.
