Cognite, a leading global industrial AI and data company, is expanding its presence in India with a new Global Capability Centre (GCC) in Bengaluru, set to open in March 2025. This marks its latest expansion after Oslo, Texas, and Japan, as the company looks to leverage India’s top AI and ML talent.
Specializing in AI-driven solutions for asset-heavy industries like manufacturing, oil and gas, and energy, Cognite aims to enhance operational efficiency and predictive reliability through its AI framework, Atlas AI. The India Centre, led by Guru Ananthanarayanan, Managing Director of Cognite India, will serve as the R&D hub for advancing agentic AI solutions.
Atlas AI enables industrial enterprises to interact with complex datasets in natural language, seamlessly retrieving, analyzing, and delivering actionable insights. Unlike general AI platforms, Cognite’s domain-specific expertise builds proprietary knowledge graphs to unify industrial data across IT and OT systems.
Bengaluru was chosen for its deep AI talent pool, with plans to onboard 150 engineers by the end of 2025. Cognite aims to drive end-to-end product ownership from India, reinforcing its role in AI-driven industrial transformation.
