U.S.-based semiconductor company Marvell Technology has announced plans to invest $250 million in India over the next three years to expand its research and development (R&D) capabilities, engineering operations, and workforce.
The investment coincides with the company’s 20th year of operations in India and includes plans to double its employee base in the country during the three-year period.
As part of the expansion, Marvell is increasing its office capacity by opening a new wing at its Bengaluru campus while also expanding operations in Hyderabad. The additional facilities are expected to support the development of semiconductor technologies for artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing, and data infrastructure.
Marvell established its India operations in 2006 with an engineering centre in Bengaluru. Over the past two decades, India has become the company’s second-largest global R&D hub, playing a key role in its product development efforts.
The company currently operates engineering centres in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Pune. Teams based in India contribute to multiple areas of semiconductor design, including 2-nanometre process technologies, high-speed analog intellectual property, subsystem architecture, software and firmware development, and end-to-end silicon engineering.
According to Marvell, its engineers in India are involved in developing technologies used across the company’s global product portfolio. The company said its teams also use artificial intelligence-based engineering tools to improve productivity, accelerate product development, and support innovation.
In addition to expanding its operations, Marvell said it continues to collaborate with universities, startups, industry bodies, and government organisations to help strengthen India’s semiconductor ecosystem and encourage research and innovation in the sector.
The latest investment reflects growing confidence in India’s semiconductor talent pool as global technology companies continue to expand engineering and chip design operations in the country.
