California-Based UST Global Expands Bangalore Operations

Kerala's biggest IT employer UST Global expanded its Bangalore operations on Friday, Feb. 17, 2012. The new facility will initially accommodate 600, with the capacity to expand to over 5,000.

Elaborating on UST Global's expansion plans, its chairman Satendra Gupta said the company's offshore operations have so far been centered on South India and the Philippines and it now makes sense to build a broader base in the IT capital of India, Bangalore.

"After being the forerunner in creating opportunities and retaining the position of the largest employer in the IT Sector in tier-2 cities of Kerala, we believe our expansion in Bangalore is the next step," said Gupta.

UST Global with a very prominent presence in Technopark, Trivandrum and Infopark, Kochi employs 9000 IT professionals globally, of which 4000 of them work in Kerala alone.

Headquartered in Aliso Viejo, California, United States, the company fosters client-specific cutting-edge innovation from its state-of-the-art centers in India and the Philippines. Outside Kerala, UST Global has operations in Chennai also, besides Bangalore.
