“We’ve been keen to establish our presence in India, leverage its incredible, unique and talented workforce, and unlock new opportunities. India is indeed a best-of-class country when it comes to industry disruption and a growth market for many of our ventures. Opening a full Creative Dock office has been at the top of our priorities, carefully preparing this move to ensure the right set-up for long-term success. Our agenda was recently accelerated by the strategic move of one of our key clients requesting us to be there.”, said Martin Pejsa, Founder of Creative Dock.
A Tribute to India’s Talent and Innovation
India is a global centre of excellence for technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship. Establishing a direct presence here reflects Creative Dock’s recognition of the country’s vibrant business landscape and its remarkable community of forward-thinking talent.
India’s Vision 2047 for long-term economic and technological leadership, combined with world-renowned institutions like IIT (Indian Institute of Technology), IIM (Indian Institute of Management) and IISc (Indian Institute of Science), make the country a natural choice for our next chapter of growth. Creative Dock India will act first as a complementary Delivery Center within Creative Dock’s global operations, but foremost as an Innovation Hub, enabling close collaboration with some of the brightest minds and visionary entrepreneurs shaping the future of digital innovation across industries.
