Strangeworks Expands Global Presence to India and Sri Lanka
Strangeworks is
expanding its global footprint with a significant expansion into the Indian
market, with additional reach in Sri Lanka. This strategic move adds to the
already strong presence in the US, Europe, and Japan, and brings the transformative
potential of quantum and AI to enterprises across this rapidly advancing region.
India is emerging as a powerhouse in quantum
and AI innovation, with government initiatives like the National Quantum
Mission (NQM) signaling a strong, long-term investment in developing homegrown
quantum capabilities and a highly skilled workforce. Fueled by dynamic
startups, world-class research institutions, and a booming demand for next-gen
solutions in sectors like energy, finance, pharma, logistics, and manufacturing,
this region is a perfect fit for Strangeworks.
By simplifying access to
the widest range of advanced compute hardware and software technologies,
Strangeworks empowers researchers and subject matter experts to more easily
formulate, model, analyze, and deploy enterprise solutions to their complex
optimization, machine learning, and simulation problems, without needing a PhD
in quantum mechanics to get started.
This regional expansion also builds on
Strangeworks' successful collaboration with BQP, a Quantum-Accelerated Digital
Twin software company with Indian origin. Since 2022, the two companies have
worked together to advance the area of Quantum algorithms and applications for
India's quantum ecosystem and broadly its industries. They demonstrated
high-performance engineering simulations for race cars, which showcase how
quantum-inspired algorithms can deliver valuable business outcomes today.
To lead this growth, Strangeworks has appointed Pathy
Iyer as Director of India Sales and Marketing. Based in Bengaluru, Iyer brings
nearly 30 years of experience driving business development in education and
research technology across companies like HP, Agilent, and Keysight. He will
play a key role in building strategic partnerships and deepening customer
relationships throughout the region.
"India's
bold investments in quantum and AI make it one of the most exciting markets on
the planet," said Steven Gibson, Chief Commercial Officer
of Strangeworks. "With Pathy at the helm and
strong regional partnerships in place, we're bolstering our mission to
democratize advanced computing globally."
Pathy Iyer said, "I
am honored to join Strangeworks and lead its expansion into India and Sri
Lanka. The potential for quantum and AI technologies to revolutionize
industries here is immense. I look forward to working closely with our
customers and partners to leverage Strangeworks' unparalleled platform to solve
complex challenges and drive innovation across the region."
