Infosys expands Visakhapatnam footprint with major campus development. The IT giant will establish a permanent 20-acre development centre with capacity for 7,000 engineers in Visakhapatnam, marking significant growth in the region. The company has already scaled its workforce from 250 employees in early 2024 to nearly 1,900 currently, with an additional 750 seats becoming operational soon. The Andhra Pradesh government allocated the land to support this expansion. Infosys has recruited over 1,000 freshers and 500 lateral hires from the region, demonstrating strong local talent availability. This investment reflects the success of Andhra Pradesh's focused skilling initiatives and tech-friendly policies, positioning Visakhapatnam as an emerging destination for global technology companies and reversing talent migration trends.
