“IPG Automotive will even be closer to the customers in India and support them to the best of our abilities on site. In the past, a sales partner was responsible for the Indian market, but now, we are handling business directly ensuring customer centricity. I am looking forward to this new task and to the team which will help shape the future of vehicle development and mobility solutions.” - Nagesh Poojary, Managing Director India

November 2023 : With over eight million inhabitants, Bangalore is the centre of the Indian high-tech industry. To strengthen customer relations on site, IPG Automotive has opened its first office in India at Bangalore.

With Nagesh Poojary appointed as Managing Director, a seasoned automotive manager and development engineer is running the Indian subsidiary. Beforehand, he worked at Continental in Bangalore as location leader of the Product Line Safety where his responsibilities included the Autonomous Mobility unit with its Systems and Software Business. Furthermore, he has many years of experience in the development of computer vision as well as safety and camera solutions for ADAS.

Expressing his optimism about the growth potential in India, Martin Elbs, Senior Vice President and CCO, said “The Indian market plays a very essential role in the automotive industry. It is therefore consistent to open up this market with our own subsidiary and offer local support.”

The new Managing Director India, Nagesh Poojary, confirmed: “IPG Automotive will be even closer to the customers in India and support them to the best of our abilities on site.
