Nasscom to train up to 50,000 product managers by 2025: Narayanan

NASSCOM Product Council is a community to cater the needs of 3,720 product companies based in India in both domestic and global contexts

Nasscom plans to create a talent base of 50,000 product managers by 2025 as the ecosystem lacks talent at all levels, Ramkumar Narayanan, chair, Nasscom Product Council, told Business Standard.

“We have a good install base for engineers, with almost 1 million passing out every year, but we are lacking a lot of people for functions like product managers, designers, analysts, and top-class product marketers. As more and more product companies start to emerge from India, we need a large number of people in these roles,” he said.

Speaking with Business Standard as the Nasscom Product Conclave kicks-off on October
