Irish expansion: Infosys


Furthering its relationship with Ireland, Bangalore-based tech consultant company Infosys announced in December that it would be creating 250 jobs in Ireland over the next three years. An Infosys subsidiary, EdgeVerve Systems will set up a new R&D facility with the creation of 95 highly skilled R&D roles focusing on FinTech research and development, and a further 155 jobs in IT services. A leader in consulting, technology, outsourcing and next- generation services, Infosys has US$ 8.7 billion in annual revenues and currently employs over 250 people in Ireland. At the announcement of the project, which been supported by the Department of Jobs through IDA Ireland, Dr. Vishal Sikka, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Infosys said, “Much like Ireland, Infosys has based its growth on a foundation of education, lifelong learning and a deep commitment to innovation. Infosys is already working with clients in Ireland helping them explore new ways of working and advancing, by embracing technology-led innovation. We want to build on this early success.” John Kilmartin believes this is a significant coup for Ireland. “Edgeverve is very different investment to what is gone before from India and it’s a real departure. They are going to use Ireland as a global R&D facility. It’s recognising the talent base that Ireland can bring to the table for FinTech. It’s a very high end block chain technology that they are looking to build out, it’s very hot at the moment and the fact that they have chosen Ireland to do that is really testament to the talent base that exists in Ireland and can be drawn to Ireland. That’s very significant in terms of innovative technology.”
