JAIPUR, INDIA: Infosys BPO Ltd, the subsidiary of Infosys Technologies Ltd, today announced the inauguration of its second BPO campus at Mahindra World City, the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Jaipur, Rajasthan.

The Chief Minister of Rajasthan, Vasundhara Raje was the chief guest on the occasion. She was accompanied by Dr. Digambar Singh, Minister of Industries, Government of Rajasthan. Infosys' CEO and MD, Kris Gopalakrishnan, Mohandas Pai, along with CEO and MD of Infosys BPO, Amitabh Chaudhry, were also present.

The new campus at the SEZ at Mahindra World City, Jaipur, spread over 42 acres, is being set up in phases and an estimated amount of Rs. 531 crore would be invested in the project, said a press release.

In the first phase, Infosys has made an investment of Rs. 171 crore, creating a built-up area of 3,69,100 sq. ft with a seating capacity of 3,200.

It works with universities in Rajasthan through 'Project Genesis', a program to enhance skill-sets in students and make them industry-ready.

Since October 2005, it has worked with 229 lecturers in 110 colleges and imparted training to 3,250 students in industry-relevant skills including language, presentation, and analytical skills, the release said.

As a part of company's drive to become carbon neutral, this campus would have 49% of the total area as the green belt.

"Jaipur is becoming an exciting destination for the IT-ITES industry. The Honorable Chief Minister, Smt. Vasundhara Raje has proactively put in place progressive policies and has invested in infrastructure to ensure rapid growth," said Kris Gopalakrishnan.

"Our investment in the second campus firmly establishes Jaipur as a significant center for Infosys. We are extremely happy to be in Jaipur and acknowledge the support and encouragement of the state government," he added.

The release mentioned that campus connect program has partnered with 32 engineering colleges in Rajasthan and is aimed at enhancing the employability of the talent pool. As a part of this program, it has trained 120 faculty members and 1914 students in Rajasthan.

Amitabh Chaudhry said, "We are pleased with the quality of work that is delivered from our Jaipur operations. The new campus in the SEZ at Mahindra World City reiterates our belief in the talent in the city and this region."

The Special Training Program (STP) enables MCA and engineering graduates, from socially disadvantaged sections, to compete on an equal footing in the job market.
