Day 3: BT to invest 3 million pounds in India

MUMBAI: According to BT Worldwide (Asia Pacific), President, Graham

Moore, most of this investment would be utilized in the purchase of networking

equipments that would be used for both voice-based and data-based networking.






BT would be looking at plans to set up centers in Delhi and Bangalore by July
this year and later set up a third center in Mumbai. And it is actively looking

at local partners to complete this process. Currently, it is undergoing

negotiations with four local partners who are having international licenses

though the finalization would happen in only about a month’s time.






According to Moore, the rationale behind setting up the Indian operations was
because several of its customers in UK and Europe plan to set up call centers in

India. And these customers specifically want BT to have the infrastructure set

up in India. However, he refuted speculations about BT itself setting up a call

center in India.
