Mumbai, December 17, 2020: Tide, UK’s leading digital business financial platform[1] has chosen India to set up its
first global development center, which is already up and running in the
southern city of Hyderabad. The new center will drive and support the technology needs
of the fast growing venture which aims to become the world’s leading digital
challenger in business banking services. Spread over 15000sft. The center already has 70+ high-quality technology
professionals working on cutting edge technologies.
Commenting on the new center and
the reason for choosing India, Guy Duncan,
Global Chief Technology Officer, Tide
UK, said, “With Tide witnessing exponential growth, we needed to look
beyond the UK and Bulgaria (where we have a
technology and support centre) as it was proving to
be difficult to hire quality talent at the required pace. India seemed a
natural choice as it offers two distinct and formidable advantages - it has
among the world’s most vibrant, innovative and advanced fintech ecosystem and
among the largest pool of high quality technology talent. It further helped
that our senior leadership has extensive and positive experience in setting up
offices and technology centres in India. We look forward to growing the
center further and expanding its role in Tide’s global strategy.”
