Hexaware says it will invest £25m in a UK expansion, creating 1,200 jobs in AI, digital services and quantum computing.
The global technology group plans to open new research and development centres in Manchester and Leeds and expand its operations in Birmingham.
“Hexaware has worked alongside businesses in the UK for more than three decades. We have very high ambitions for our growth, creating impact in the UK and proudly supporting the Government’s inclusive vision for AI,” stated R. Srikrishna, CEO & Executive Director, Hexaware.
“Our investments are focused on developing young talent, working with unique published datasets, and collaborating with government at all levels across the country to create a positive impact for the citizens of the UK. These investments in AI research, digital innovation for citizen services, and talent incubation will create meaningful social impact while fuelling and accelerating the UK’s long-term economic growth.”
Its UK HQ in Canary Wharf opened in 2025 and since then the UK has become its second largest global market.
“The UK is one of our fastest-growing markets, and this investment reflects the confidence our clients and the UK Government place in Hexaware,” added Parameshwaran (Param) Iyer, Executive Vice President, Head – UK and Europe, Hexaware.
“Our UK clients are moving fast on AI, and having research and delivery talent on the ground here means we can build with them rather than for them.”
