Software being developed at IBM’s software development lab in Kochi is being shipped out to large global corporates and enterprises etching the city’s name alongside a software product, said Dinesh Nirmal, senior vice president (products), IBM Software.
Speaking to The Hindu, Mr. Nirmal said it was exciting to establish ‘Made in Kochi’ tagline alongside software products rather than reducing the city to a mere transit point of sorts in software development. It is a matter of pride for the city, he added.
“For a young software development lab that was inaugurated by the Chief Minister only in September 2022, the growth has been impressive. I have worked with many labs but has never such high growth rate. It is not just about the growth but also the high-quality talent that we are getting. From the perspective of talent, skill, and output perspective, the Kochi lab has shined across the globe,” said Mr. Nirmal.
