In the long arc of India's technological rise, Hyderabad has become a city that global companies choose not merely for cost, but for capability. This week, HCLTech deepened a nearly two-decade commitment to the city by announcing a 320,000 square-foot technology center that will create 5,000 jobs and bring its local capacity to 8,500 seats — a declaration made, notably, on the world stage of Davos. The expansion reflects a broader truth: that the geography of global technology is being redrawn, and cities like Hyderabad are increasingly at its center.
