The satellite working location based in Kochi offers modern facilities with a welcoming open-plan design, and a seating capacity of 30 plus workstations, which is looking to increase in the future. With the opening of this new location, Elektrobit not only recognizes the talent pool in the city but also affirms its commitment to future technology by harnessing the potential of emerging technologies. Elektrobit is dedicated to bringing exciting projects and cutting-edge work to Kochi. Furthermore, the company is eager to explore collaborations and partnerships within the local ecosystem, fostering innovation and driving mutual growth. This expansion marks an exciting milestone for Elektrobit.
“Elektrobit is committed to its workforce in India by offering alternatives for remote working from outside its base location in Bangalore,” said Satish Sundaresan, Vice President, Elektrobit. “Kochi offers the perfect ecosystem and quality of living to support our native workforce from this region as well as attract new talent from the growing tech and start-up community.”
The Kochi office will mirror many of the benefits that employees have at the regional headquarters in Bangalore. Offering this level of flexibility, which has become the accepted employment model in many societies, the new location underlies Elektrobit’s position as an employer of choice for those talented individuals who wish to work in a company with a global reach.
