Zoom to set up shop in Bengaluru to attend to growing India user base

Bengaluru: Zoom Video Communications on Tuesday said it will set up a new technology centre here and hire key talent over the next few years to expand its presence in India.

The company said in a statement the new office in India would help it manage its vastly growing number of Indian users. “From January to April 2020, Zoom has seen 6,700 per cent growth in free user sign ups in India,” the statement read.

The company said it already has an office as well as two data centres in Mumbai and that its expansion into Bengaluru will supplement its existing research and development centres and support the engineering leadership, which is based at its San Jose, California headquarters.
