S&P Global India opens its new office in Bengaluru, strengthening its operations in India and fostering technology and innovation. The office, situated in a prominent technology and innovation hub, spans 33,000 square feet and features meeting rooms, standing desks, and boardrooms that can be easily reconfigured for training sessions. It also includes lounge areas, breakout rooms, a balcony where people can work in the fresh air, a cafeteria with a small event space, and a unique "Campfire" area as a collaborative workspace and a recreational zone.
Emphasising its People Forward philosophy, the office is thoughtfully designed to foster collaboration and efficiency and is equipped with advanced audio-visual technology, providing an ideal environment for people to thrive and deliver exceptional value. With a strong focus on employee wellness, the workspace includes a "Wellness Path" for 'walk and talk' meetings or simply for walking, strategically placed stationary cycling stations, a mother's room, a medical room, and a multi-faith room. In addition, S&P Global will provide various healthy dining options that prioritise employee health and wellbeing.
Girish Ganesan, Chief People Officer at S&P Global, said, "Our 'People Forward' proposition is focused on empowering and equipping our employees with the right tools, skills, and opportunities, and to create a work environment that will help our people excel in an increasingly dynamic world. Our new state-of-the-art office in Bengaluru, India, provides a modern and collaborative workspace to foster creativity, engagement, and productivity. Located in a city known for its vibrant technology and innovation ecosystem, this office is a key hub for innovation and data-driven solutions, playing a crucial role in driving our mission to deliver insights that accelerate progress globally."
While incorporating S&P Global's culture and brand values, the Bengaluru office also showcases Karnataka's rich heritage and culture. The walking path is adorned with artistic and eco-friendly Channapatna (a small town in Karnataka) toys to support the challenges faced by dwindling artisans and revitalise the craft. The meeting rooms are named after some of the most vibrant streets in Bengaluru to highlight the city further.
Nilam Patel, Managing Director - India Operations at S&P Global, said, "Our new office, based in PrimeCo City in Whitefield, Bengaluru, provides ample space for creativity and productivity, giving our people a workspace where they will enjoy coming, not just to work but also to learn, explore, collaborate and celebrate. The space further strengthens our ability to deliver exceptional value while supporting the growth and development of our talented teams".
