The STC Bengaluru - Innovating for tomorrow's needs

Alongside another technology center slated to open in China in early December, the Bengaluru facility builds on SABIC's two existing dedicated application centers in the region - one in Moka, Japan, and the other in Sungnam, South Korea. With these centers, SABIC has 17 Technology & Innovation facilities globally including its centers in Saudi Arabia, the USA, the Netherlands and Spain.

Ernesto Occhiello, SABIC's Executive Vice President, Technology and Innovation, said: "We are gathering some of the best and brightest talent from India to shape the future of our R&D efforts. Both centers together host a critical mass of professionals and are an indication of SABIC's commitment to be the preferred technology partner for Asian customers as well as the employer of choice for the best talent from the region."

Janardhanan Ramanujalu, Vice President, SABIC South Asia & ANZ said: "The launch of the SABIC Technology Center in Bengaluru is a clear reflection of SABIC's commitment to India, and is a very important milestone for us. The center will therefore play a pivotal role in delivering innovative products and solutions, while harnessing local talent coupled with the infusion of hi-tech local expertise and knowledge into the country, including scientists and engineers who are returning from overseas."

Commitment to Sustainability and the environment

The STC in Bengaluru is also designed with a strong environmental and sustainable ethos and a zero-discharge facility. The energy and water consumption of the facility will be minimized.

SABIC is also firmly committed to - and is already supporting - several community and CSR initiatives around the STC. Key projects undertaken include the Hosahalli Lake restoration project, reconstruction of Hosahalli Government School, a Community Resource Center in Hosahalli Village and bus shelters around the vicinity.
