“With the new delivery centre, TCS expects to double its workforce to 1200-plus in a year to support its further growth in the region. Located in the heart of the city, the new delivery centre showcases TCS’ capabilities across industries and technologies,” the Tata subsidiary said in a statement.
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, the statement added.
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. TCS derives over 30% of its revenue from Continental Europe and the United Kingdom (UK).
The company set up operations in Poland in 2006 and its presence in the region has continued to strengthen since then.
“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,” said Sapthagiri Chapalapalli, head of Europe at TCS.
