Telangana’s IT Minister, Duddila Sridhar Babu, announced on Friday the state government’s mission to establish a strong and self-sustaining semiconductor ecosystem. Speaking at the launch of Allegro MicroSystems’ new Research & Development (R&D) facility in the city, Babu highlighted the potential of this collaboration to empower local entrepreneurs in critical sectors such as battery management, electric vehicle (EV) powertrains, and autonomous vehicle technologies, all key to India’s transition to an electric vehicle future.
Allegro’s new R&D facility in Hyderabad is already home to nearly 100 skilled professionals, with plans to scale this number to 500 in the near future. The facility will serve as a Centre of Excellence for analogue and mixed-signal design, specifically focusing on the EV, automotive, and robotic automation markets. This expansion is expected to drive advanced technological development and position Hyderabad as a leader in emerging technologies.
Vineet Nargolwala, CEO of Allegro MicroSystems, emphasized that Hyderabad’s talent pool, infrastructure, and government support make it an ideal location for the company’s growth. Allegro, a key supplier to major automotive brands like BMW and leading EV manufacturers, aims to develop innovative solutions for e-mobility, clean energy, and automation.
The R&D centre will also support Allegro’s wide range of applications across industries such as robotics, AI, solar energy, and medical equipment, contributing to the state’s broader goals of innovation and skill development.
