Rohde & Schwarz has announced the launch of a new AI/ML Design centre, as the technology giant prepares for the next step towards chip design within its existing Bengaluru facility. For the first time, this new design centre will bring dedicated artificial intelligence, machine learning, and future chip design capability to the campus. The announcement was made by Christian Leicher, President & CEO of Rohde & Schwarz.
The expansion will add a specialised space focused on artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced chipset design. The company expects to create several new hi-tech roles over the next 2-3 years. Commenting on the development, Leicher said, “India is a key part of our long-term global strategy. With this expansion, we’re investing directly in the country’s exceptional young talent in AI, machine learning, and semiconductor design—talent we believe will shape our technology roadmap for years to come.”
AI/ML Design Centre: Boosting Indigenous Prowess
The centre reflects Rohde & Schwarz’s own ‘Make in India, for the world’ approach to technology development—drawing on the country’s deep pool of AI/ML and semiconductor engineering talent to design AI/ML solutions and chips in India for the company’s global business. Solutions designed by engineers in Bengaluru will support Rohde & Schwarz products across divisions worldwide, positioning India not just as a market the company serves, but as a source of engineering for its global product line. This expansion adds to Rohde & Schwarz India’s growing team of over 500 employees.
The expansion builds on Rohde & Schwarz’s established engineering presence in Bengaluru and is one of the company’s two R&D centres in India alongside New Delhi. Both centres focus on advanced wireless communication, test and measurement, and secure communication solutions. With the new AI/ML Design Center and preparations for chip design activities, Bengaluru adds silicon-level design capability to its existing R&D work, bringing chip development and systems engineering closer together on the same campus. This initiative strengthens a portfolio that already spans Rohde & Schwarz India’s core businesses.
