Re: Which location is better for an IT start-up/offshore center

I have been working in India & US for the past 9 years in Offshore Development and my advice would be to start the center in Pune. There are various reasons. Primary reason being the availability of resources who have good communication skills, secondly promixity to the Pune Airport/ Mumbai Airport. Excellent infrastructure in Pune and the climate in Pune. I am myself thinking of joining some like minded Software professionals to start an Offshore Development Center. My email id is vimsam@yahoo.com

It would be good to have this started in Noida, place near delhi, which is very good for IT and coming up very well, Resources will not be a problem there.

Re: Which location is better for an IT start-up/offshore center

Pune will be better than Chennai
> availability of skilled employees
> IT parks at hingewadi , talawade , magarpatta and many more
> good infrastructure
> Better environment to work .

- ve points
> lack of international airport
currently plans undergoing to create international airport at chakan(pune) also approximately 2- 2 1/2 hrs drive from mumbai international airport by expressway
