The real Indian IT Pioneer…

HCL has a brand new mascot! The seemingly know it all, funny yet globe trotting HCL employee is more then just arrogant. What he truly represents is the changing face of HCL, a company which not only operates in India but is working towards a better global future as well! With its 51,000 employees spread across 18 countries, HCL has become one of India’s true multinationals with interests in diverse genres such as financial services, retail, life sciences and healthcare, telecom, media, hi-tech and manufacturing. HCL Technologies focuses on what it calls ‘transformational outsourcing’ specialising in areas which will have an eventual impact on the future and business as a whole. According to Shiv Nadar, founder of HCL “Since its inception three decades ago, HCL has always dreamt fearlessly and is responsible for many firsts in the computing landscape. We could well be called a ‘pioneer in modern computing’.”

Sitting at $1.5 billion, revenues have been increasing at an incredible 30% per annum and the momentum is strong! Moreover HCL Technologies prides itself as being one of India’s foremost organisations in terms of innovation. With its relentless struggle to maximise its shareholder and business value, India’s fifth largest IT company will invest close to $625 million toward the establishment of three SEZs across the country. The centres will focus on future technologies and their eventual operationalisation. Even though HCL does not find itself as voracious as its other Indian counterparts like Infosys and Wipro, the company still is a force to reckon with. Going by its new found chutzpah, only sky is the limit for this forceful and fearless dreamer!
