GSAS Micro Systems inaugurated its new manufacturing and expanded R&D facility in Doddaballapur, Bengaluru Rural, marking a significant step in the company’s journey from embedded engineering and technology integration toward a stronger in-house product development and manufacturing footprint in Karnataka.
Located in the Doddaballapur 3rd Phase Industrial Area, the new facility brings GSAS’s product development, engineering, manufacturing and project activities together under one roof. It will serve as a working hub for hardware manufacturing, assembly, integration, quality testing, R&D and new-product development.
The expansion comes as Karnataka continues to strengthen its electronics and semiconductor ecosystem, building on its established capabilities in electronic design and semiconductor R&D. According to the Karnataka Digital Economy Mission (KDEM), the state contributes 10% of India’s electronics output and nearly 40% of the country’s electronic design output. Karnataka also accounts for more than 22% of India’s electronics exports and hosts more than 100 fabless semiconductor design companies.
For GSAS, the Doddaballapur facility is both a business milestone and the culmination of a much older ambition. The company’s founder has carried the vision of building a dedicated electronics manufacturing base since the 1990s. Bringing that ambition to life in Karnataka gives the company a permanent home for developing and building more of its own products while expanding the engineering infrastructure available for customer-specific programmes.
“This is a deeply personal milestone for me. I have wanted to build a dedicated electronics manufacturing home since the 1990s. Karnataka gave our generation of electronics entrepreneurs the engineering talent, industry networks and ecosystem to build companies here. With this facility, we now have a place where our team can take more ideas from engineering and R&D into real products and manufacturing. For us, this is not the end of a dream; it is the foundation for what GSAS wants to build next.” said Satya Gopalam, Chairman and Managing Director , GSAS Micro Systems.
“Our engineering work has been moving deeper into the FPGA space, with vision AI and edge AI projects, board bring-up support for automotive programmes, and PCBA test automation. This new 12,000 square foot facility gives that work a manufacturing home: we will build the new Genesis series here, essentially embedded development kits and FPGA development kits, manufactured and assembled on site, alongside test automation and integration work for the automotive, aerospace and satellite space. We have been working towards this for the last few years, and I am proud to see it finally established. If you are curious, reach out; we are happy to give you a tour of the facility.” said Anvesh Gopalam, Executive Director , GSAS Micro Systems.
