Wipro is planning to open a centre in Atlanta, US and plans to hire about 500 people locally.

The company plans to open the centre in three months. Wipro is also planning to have facilities at Raleigh, NC, Austin, Texas and Richmond, Virginia. About 1,000 people are expected to be hired for these centres.

The nature if IT services business and the newer contracts, the need to address security and IP issues are making it necessary for the companies to have a global presence. And local people are perceived to be better equipped to deal with situations in terms of language and culture.
