Mindtree opens first innovation hub in US

Domestic IT consulting firm Mindtree on Tuesday opened its first international innovation hub 'Digital Pumpkin' at its New Jersey office.

Building on the success of the original 'Digital Pumpkin' at its global headquarters in Bengaluru, the facility addresses the demand from Mindtree clients in the US for an interactive space where multi-disciplinary teams can ideate, design and craft meaningful digital experiences.

"It is the perfect laboratory to help catalyse digital ideas into real-world solutions and to ensure those solutions are infused across the entire organisation," said Rostow Ravanan, CEO, Mindtree, in a statement.

The 16,000 square feet facility will offer digital solutions, accelerators and tools for clients including a multi-channel Site Builder, Consumer Engagement and Loyalty Platform, Next-Generation Unified Interface for consumer-centric organisations and more.

"The success of our Bengaluru-based 'Digital Pumpkin' led to creating a similar space to better serve our US clients," Ravanan added.

Since the opening of 'Digital Pumpkin' in Bengaluru in 2013, the innovation hub has been the seedbed behind more than 50 major transformations.

The 'Digital Pumpkin' portfolio includes solutions around Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Cognitive Solutions, Virtual and Augmented reality, Machine learning, Conversational, Cloud and Big data.
