India is a strategic market and innovation hub for Infineon, a global leader in power systems and IoT. With more than 2.500 employees, Infineon India has been driving R&D and innovation for almost over 25 years in the country’s semiconductor ecosystem. Recently, Infineon has expanded its presence in India even further with a Global Capability Centre (GCC) in Ahmedabad, located in the Gujarat International Finance Tec-City (GIFT City). The inauguration was presided over by the Chief Minister of Gujarat, Bhupendra Patel, and Infineon CEO, Jochen Hanebeck.
The state-of-the-art centre in Ahmedabad marks a significant milestone in Infineon’s strategic commitment to innovation and operational excellence in India. It will employ 500 highly skilled engineers and professionals over the next five years, focusing on advanced R&D for semiconductor chip design and product software, as well as Information Technology, Supply Chain Management, and Systems & Application Engineering. This comprehensive setup will further enhance Infineon’s ability to deliver world-class semiconductor solutions and drive technological advancements globally. It builds on the success of its already existing Bengaluru centre. With the new capabilities in Ahmedabad, Infineon is now represented at five locations in India.
“Our new capability centre will play a key role in Infineon’s global innovation strategy and supplement our R&D landscape,” said Jochen Hanebeck, CEO of Infineon. “India is rapidly emerging as a hub for semiconductor innovation. We are proud to be at the heart of this development and are committed to participating in the country’s tremendous market growth by targeting more than one billion euros in sales in 2030. As a global leader in the semiconductor industry, we will further contribute to the development of the Indian semiconductor industry by leveraging our innovation capabilities as well as the growing talent pool in India.”
