This expansion highlights our commitment to regional growth and technological advancements in Europe, further empowering our customers to scale at speed and adapt their businesses like never before.”
The centre will employ approximately 500 professionals, further extending Tech Mahindra’s global workforce which spans over 145000+ employees across 90+ countries.
