HYDERABAD, India : The Hartford, a leading U.S.-based
insurance company, announces the grand opening of its new India Technology
Center today in Hyderabad’s Financial District. This strategic expansion
reinforces the company’s commitment to advancing artificial intelligence and
digital innovation.
The Hartford will operate its cutting-edge technology
center from the top two floors of Kalyani Trident, a facility designed to
ignite innovation and energize teams. The office features dynamic collaboration
areas to foster teamwork and creativity, state-of-the-art workstations, and
training facilities to support continual learning and professional growth. The
new office also features a history wall celebrating The Hartford’s
more-than-200-year legacy.
“The true strength of The Hartford has always been its
people,” said The Hartford’s Chief Information Officer Shekar Pannala. “By
building on our world-class workforce with this technology center in Hyderabad,
we are not only creating new digital and AI capabilities but also shaping the
future of insurance technology. This center will be a magnet for talent in
India – a place where engineering excellence and unified purpose drive
innovation at scale.”
Hyderabad, like The Hartford, is a place where
heritage meets innovation. The city was selected because of its thriving
ecosystem, diverse and skilled technology workforce, and reputation as a global
innovation center. The Hyderabad office is part of The Hartford’s
forward-looking approach to develop a global technology team that accelerates
engineering capabilities and scales development centers across key locations.
It will complement The Hartford’s existing U.S. technology centers in Hartford,
Connecticut; Chicago, Illinois; and Charlotte, North Carolina, and support the
company’s broader innovation agenda.
“The team we are hiring in Hyderabad will apply
advancements in data, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies to
elevate and expand The Hartford’s capabilities while upholding the high
standards of ethics and integrity for which we are known,” said The
Hartford’s Chief Data, AI and Operations Officer Jeff Hawkins. “We are
eager for the Hyderabad workforce to share in our bold, imaginative work.”
