National Instruments (NI) announced the expansion of their R&D center in Bangalore and launched the NI India Business Incubator Program as a part of its efforts to support the government’s Make in India initiative. Both these initiatives will enable Indian engineers to become global knowledge partners in driving innovation and development across industries and domains.
 
The expansion of the India R&D center ensures that NI has access to the top talent instrumental in building a platform that meets the needs of all engineers and scientists today. NI works with leading universities to hire the best and brightest talent within the region and provides formal and on-the-job training to create a long-term and sustained career progression.
 
“We strongly believe we can help the Indian start-up ecosystem overcome technological hurdles and succeed faster. Our platform provides the fastest way for engineers and scientist to access new technology and accelerate productivity, innovation, and discovery.  By providing access to NI's platform and technologies, we are investing in future innovators and contributing towards sustainable development in all markets that we serve,” said Scott Rust, senior vice president of Global R&D at NI.
 
Through NI India’s Business Incubator Program, the company will provide increased access to NI technology, technical training and support to shared local communities like domestic small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), academic incubation centers and start-ups.
 
“For Make in India to succeed and sustain, manufacturing in India should bring more benefits to the table than just cost of labour. Companies can differentiate themselves by adopting smart technologies to reduce defects and improve quality. NI’s technology provides a flexible and powerful platform to build these intelligent systems that power the factory of the future. Startups are an integral part of building the future and we believe that the NI India Business Incubator Program will contribute to the Make in India initiative,” said Jayaram Pillai, Managing Director, NI India.
 
NI provides platform-based systems to engineers and scientists for solving engineering challenges and to accelerate productivity and drive rapid innovation. Customers from a wide variety of industries – from healthcare to automotive and from consumer electronics to particle physics – use NI’s integrated hardware and software platform to develop and manufacture products.
