Gaurav Gupta, Technical Consultant at HPE said, “I congratulate HPE on the occasion of the ground breaking ceremony, which is a mark of the $500 million investment that HPE has planned in India over the next five years. In fact, 48 per cent of the total MNC R&D workforce in India works in the 450+ R&D centres in Bengaluru.”
