Low-cost carrier AirAsia is transforming itself into a travel technology company through a slew of initiatives including the launch of an international technology centre in Bengaluru.
“We are aspiring to become a technology company. We have a good partnership with Google. One of them is our migration to Google Cloud. So, we are putting the foundation to become a really good travel technology company and the opening of the Bengaluru centre is one of the testaments to that,” AirAsia Group head for software engineering and technology, Elias Vafiadis told BusinessLine . The airline has similar but relatively smaller technology centres in Malaysia and Singapore.
