Aircraft engine maker Pratt & Whitney establishes R&D centre in Bengaluru
US-based engine maker Pratt & Whitney (PW) on Tuesday said it has established a research & development (R&D) centre in Bengaluru ‘to accelerate innovation and drive digital and business transformation’ for its global operations.
The company said it is recruiting the first batch of employees for the R&D centre — called India Digital Capability Center (IDCC) — which is a ‘multi-million dollar investment’. By 2027, the centre is expected to have over 300 employees.
IDCC will be co-located with PW’s engineering and supply chain operations centres. PW is part of RTX, the world’s largest aerospace and defense company.
