Snowflake, a leading AI data cloud firm, is significantly increasing its investments in India, aiming to grow its headcount to over 700 employees by the end of 2025. The company views India as a "land of opportunities" for data and AI, and is strategically expanding its presence and capabilities to tap into its massive potential. Vijayant Rai, India MD of Snowflake, highlighted the company's expansion plans and the significant opportunities it sees in the Indian market [1].Snowflake has recently opened a new office in Mumbai and plans to expand its presence in Bengaluru by August 2025. These expansions will support teams across sales, operations, solutions engineering, marketing, and the Pune CoE, which the company describes as the only one of its kind in the Asia Pacific Japan (APJ) region. Notably, 50% of Snowflake's APJ partner ecosystem is rooted in India, including firms like Deloitte, EY, LTIMindtree, TCS, AWS, and Microsoft [1].
The company sees opportunities to grow in financial services, SMEs, digital natives, manufacturing, and the public sector. Rai noted that the public sector is a big focus area for Snowflake, with actual investments in resources in Delhi to start their public sector business [1].
Snowflake's strategic expansion in India is driven by the vast potential of the Indian market for data and AI. The company aims to leverage its capabilities to serve both the Indian market and global customers from India. With a massive headroom to expand in the world of data, Snowflake is doubling down on India as an investment destination [1].
