American software company VMware is reportedly planning to invest up to 500 million dollars in India over the next three years.
The company's investment plan is an attempt to help fund its growing operations in the market.
According to Enterprise Innovation, the company's R and D and support operations in India are second in size and scale only to those at VMware's headquarters in Palo Alto, California.
VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger said that India continues to play a crucial role in the company's global product roadmap and growth strategy.
He added that the country's outstanding engineering talent continues to impress the software company, which in turn keeps it committed to investing and growing its team here over the long term.
In 2013, company headcount in India grew 17 percent to 2,300, while the recent acquisition of AirWatch has added additional employees in Bangalore, the report added.
