Nvidia development centre opened

HYDERABAD: Nvidia, a US $ 4 billion fabless semiconductor and graphics solutions company, opened its sophisticated Hyderabad Development Centre at Nanakramguda on Tuesday. President and CEO of the company Jen Hsun Huang inaugurated the facility.

Mr. Huang said that the company, which currently employed 800 people in India, would expand its operations in the Asia-Pacific region.

He said the company was growing fast in the region and was expecting a significant contribution towards development and design from India.

He said that Indian technocrats had their share of contribution in the company’s phenomenal growth in the last 14 years.

"In fact, their number is so big that soon some one may comment that it is any Indian company," he said.

Nvidia acquired PortalPlayer, a technology solutions provider for digital devices, which added significant capabilities in chip design. In fact, Nvidia wanted to provide all the features of a personal computer in mobile devices to produce a mobile computer.

PortalPlayer had developed all personal computing capabilities on a single chip, he said.
