The two companies aim to produce servers worth approximately USD 1 billion over the initial five years of production.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:14px">In a remarkably short timeframe, VVDN has established a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Manesar, Haryana, in collaboration with HPE. This facility is now operational at full capacity, as per a joint statement released by the companies.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:14px">Expressing gratitude to the Indian government and the Ministry of Electronics &amp; Information Technology (MeitY), Som Satsangi, SVP and Managing Director at HPE India, commended the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) program for encouraging OEMs like HPE to establish a manufacturing presence in India. Satsangi reaffirmed HPE's commitment to driving innovation, nurturing local talent, and contributing to India's economic growth.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:14px">A key highlight of HPE's Indian manufacturing capabilities is the Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA) process utilising surface-mounted technology. This creates significant local value addition for the servers beyond mere assembly and testing, further strengthening HPE's position as a trusted and preferred supplier for its government and public sector customers.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:14px">Puneet Agarwal, CEO of VVDN Technologies, hailed the partnership with HPE as a significant contribution towards India's ambition of becoming a global manufacturing hub. He emphasised the establishment of advanced manufacturing capabilities in India, reflecting the companies' dedication to leveraging local expertise and supporting the 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' (self-reliant India) vision.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:14px"><em><strong>(KNN Bureau)</strong></em></span></p> 37442 https://knnindia.co.in/news/newsdetails/sectors/hewlett-packard-to-make-servers-in-india-to-meet-local-demand 2024-04-16 15:52:47 knnindia.co.in
