HCLTech announced it is setting up a new Singapore-based artificial intelligence (AI) / Cloud native lab that is expected to be opened in 2025. Roshni Nadar Malhotra, chairperson, HCLTech, made this announcement on Monday at an event with the Ministry of Digital Development and Information of Singapore and the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB).

The new lab in Singapore will be the company’s fifth in its global network, said the firm in a filing with BSE. The Singapore based lab, joining others in the US, UK, Germany and India, will be supported by EDB and assist enterprises in the region in accelerating their AI initiatives through HCLTech’s comprehensive suite of integrated AI and GenAI offerings, including AI Force and AI Foundry, added the company’s statement.

The Lab in Singapore will also partner with Nanyang Polytechnic and Singapore Polytechnic to collaborate on transferring knowledge and nurturing young talent and mid-career individuals in AI.

Vijay Guntur, chief technology officer and head of ecosystems, HCLTech, said, “Our Labs are a conducive starting point for enterprises that want to embark on a collaborative journey to develop blueprints for AI and GenAI-led efficiencies, new business capabilities, skilling roadmaps and overall organizational competitive advantage with a pragmatic approach. We are very excited to add Singapore to our network, which will go a long way in further strengthening Singapore’s position as a regional hub for AI innovation.”

Philbert Gomez, executive director, Digital Industry Singapore (DISG), said, “DISG has been driving the adoption of AI across key industries and Singapore-based corporates, and HCLTech’s AI Lab supports this mission.”

HCLTech has been operating in Singapore for over four decades, working with many clients. Singapore is the hub for HCLTech’s Southeast Asia operations and has led technological advancements, including Asia’s first Wi-Fi-based patient tracking system and various projects for the Singapore government, added the firm in a statement.
