JAIPUR, India, May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BOT Consulting, a next-generation venture studio for Global Delivery Centers (GDCs), has announced its foray into the Indian market with its new SEZ facility in Jaipur. Spread in 2.5 acres, the 250+ seater delivery center at Mahindra World City, Jaipur will create over 500+ high-quality tech jobs in the region. Backed by a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Government of Rajasthan signed on 10th Nov. 2024, further cements Jaipur's reputation as India's emerging hub for innovation, talent, and digital infrastructure.
This expansion forms the foundation for BOT's vision of building sustainable, high-performance delivery ecosystems in Tier 2 cities that are ready for global transformation.
As a Venture Studio for GDCs, BOT offers a distinctive model that enables global tech firms to scale in India. Its approach combines the benefits of SEZs, AI-led operations, and a strong values-driven culture to deliver enterprise-grade solutions with the agility of a startup, minus the complexities of traditional outsourcing.

Our model is designed for speed, resilience, and long-term alignment, and the success of partners like Cloudsmith and Hakkoda is a testament to that vision. As we expand, our focus remains clear: to enable global tech firms to grow with agility, purpose, and impact.'
'This is not outsourcing. This is asset-building. We're creating modern, scalable delivery centers that are tightly aligned to global companies' cultures and performance goals. Jaipur, with its incredible talent and infrastructure, is ready to lead this global shift. BOT's integrated approach transforms delivery centers from cost-driven extensions into innovation-ready hubs that contribute directly to core business value,' he further added.
BOT's partners are reporting faster go-to-market outcomes, cultural cohesion, and high levels of operational performance through their India delivery centers. 'BOT Consulting has helped accelerate Cloudsmith's growth by establishing a high-performance software engineering and technical support center in Jaipur. Their ability to attract talent and scale up with us have enhanced our operational efficiency and delivered exceptional time-to-value. We are believers in Jaipur emerging as a powerhouse for world-class tech talent. We plan to keep scaling up based on BOT's strong culture and performance,' said Glenn Weinstein, CEO of Cloudsmith.
Echoing the sentiment, Erik Duffield, CEO of Hakkoda (an IBM Company), added, 'BOT Consulting has been a great Global Delivery Center partner in building out our team in Jaipur. Their support has enabled us to build an amazing team with speed and in tune with Hakkoda's culture, training, and structure.'
BOT's operating model is designed to solve the biggest challenges in global delivery—delays in ramp-up, talent attrition, and misaligned cultures—by embedding agility and ownership from day one. AI-native talent acquisition, intensive onboarding, and robust governance allow operational readiness within weeks. With a high retention rate, driven by a strong emphasis on cultural integration and employee well-being, BOT ensures continuity and quality at scale.
Through partnerships with institutions like SKIT and LNMIIT, BOT is also nurturing Rajasthan's next generation of tech professionals, with 25% of its workforce drawn from local engineering colleges. The company's Śrī Initiative, its CSR platform, drives community engagement across education and environmental causes—strengthening the social fabric around its operations and deepening its roots in the region.

Sparks fly: Seattle-area fusion startup rivals debate path to commercial power
Sustainability: News about the rapidly growing climate tech sector and other areas of innovation to protect our planet. SEE MORE A fusion energy panel at the Technology Alliance's Seattle Investor Summit+Showcase, from left: Anthony Pancotti from Helion Energy, Brian Riordan from Avalanche Energy, Ben Levitt from Zap Energy and moderator Lisa Stiffler from GeekWire. (GeekWire Photo / Todd Bishop) The conversation got a little heated at a Seattle-area conference Tuesday when three companies vying to commercialize fusion power took the stage. The Pacific Northwest is a hub for fusion innovation, and Washington is home to Helion Energy, Zap Energy and Avalanche Energy, among others. It's a small and generally collegial cluster, but representatives from the trio of companies took some swipes at each other at the Technology Alliance event as they laid out their ambitions for commercial success. With more than $1 billion from investors, Helion has set the most aggressive timelines for deploying its technology. The Everett company aims to build and operate what could be the world's first fusion power plant — a 50-megawatt facility whose electricity is earmarked for Microsoft and is supposed to come online in 2028. 'We're focused on producing electricity and breaking down all of the barriers to make that happen in this decade,' said Anthony Pancotti, co-founder and head of R&D for Helion. Ben Levitt, the head of R&D for Zap, said the field is progressing and fusion is definitely coming — but on stage at the Seattle Investor Summit+Showcase, he questioned Helion's target. 'I don't see a commercial application in the next few years happening,' Levitt said. 'There is a lot of complicated science and engineering still to be discovered and to be applied.' Fusion, which powers the sun and the stars, requires super hot, super high-pressure conditions sustained over time. The goal for the companies is to engineer a technology that generates and captures more energy from smashing atoms together than is needed to produce the reactions — a target known as 'Q greater than 1.' Later this decade and into the next, 'you'll see small scale, not necessarily profitable fusion,' Levitt predicted. 'But you will see fusion demonstrations with greater output energy than input.' Helion is currently testing its Polaris reactor, a seventh-generation prototype that will be the same size as the planned commercial reactor. The sector is attracting interest from tech companies desperate for clean energy for their power-hungry data centers. Zap, which is located in Everett a short distance from Helion, hasn't set an expected date for the commercialization of its technology. The company is experimenting with its FuZE-Q fusion device and has built its Century system, a prototype including components beyond the reactor that will be needed to generate power for the grid. For Brian Riordan, co-founder and chief operating officer of Seattle's Avalanche, the question comes down to economics. 'Ultimately, I don't think the first [company] to 'Q greater than 1' is going to matter,' he said. 'What's going to matter is who can make it economical. The first car company in the U.S. was like Duryea Power Wagon Corp. or something, and nobody remembers because they didn't make it cheap enough.' (Riordan was close — it was Duryea Motor Wagon Company.) Avalanche is aiming for Q equals 1, a lower bar to clear, within about two years, Riordan said, but that would be in a prototype, not a commercial device. In 2022, Avalanche won a Pentagon contract from the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) to develop a fusion device called the Orbitron for space propulsion and power generation. Its reactor system is among the compact — smaller than one of the event's conference tables, Riordan said. While the debate over timing and targets will be settled in coming years, the three panelists agreed that the most important thing is someone cracks the fusion challenge and unlocks this potentially vast source of clean energy. 'Good luck to everybody,' Levitt said. 'If fusion wins, we're all winners. We want to be the first, of course. But you know, any winner is a winner for humanity.'
