HCL Infosystems

The year gone by has witnessed a major turmoil in the global economic
 and political scenario, which has had an impact on the ICT industry in
 India as well. However, history testifies that every crisis presents
 opportunities and opens new avenues for development and resurgence. I
 believe India is witnessing a resurgence of its economy and stands at
 an inflection point, of growth.It is projected that within this, the
 Indian ICT market is among the fastest growing in the world.
 
 Your company HCL Infosystems, is one of the leading India facing ICT
 companies, with diverse business portfolios including Products &
 Services, System Integration, Distribution & Marketing, Education &
 Training & Security, each with its specific growth trajectory.
 
 In these exciting times, your company is poised at the right place to
 address the opportunities that are being thrown up in different
 sectors.
 
 This growth requires setting up of a core ICT infrastructure that is
 critical to the functioning of businesses and delivery of governance.An
 ICT infrastructure that is the backbone to keep all parts of the system
 connected, to increase productivity levels, and provide information and

 We are witnessing the convergence of “adjacent technologies” into the
 core with emergence of concepts like integrated security & surveillance
 solutions, mobile workforce automation solutions, electronic payment
 gateways, integrated command and control systems, and integration of
 the shop floor with central MIS etc.We are witnessing the emergence of
 an era of the “Intelligent Infrastructure”. In this period of immense
 possibilities, your company, HCL Infosystems, with over three decades

 domain System Integration practices to address the various emerging and
 growing opportunities.
