in tradition, Pune is a blend of many things. It is
the cultural capital of the State of Maharashtra, India’s
Oxford of the East, Detroit of the East and of late,
yet another Silicon Valley of India.
Pune hosts many home-grown automotive
and manufacturing giants like Tata Motors, Bajaj Auto,
Thermax, Kinetic Engineering, Forbes Marshall etc. It
is also home to Technology and Software giants such
as TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, MindTree, Persistent
Systems, Accenture, IBM and EDS among many other mid-sized
BPO & KPO outfits.

as ancillaries to large OEMs. Thanks to the presence
of these large corporate players, mature education ecosystem
and proximity to Mumbai; Pune also has India’s
most vibrant start-up eco-systems.
With a young cosmopolitan population,
adequate avenues for learning, entertainment and work
opportunities, Pune is a vibrant city and a quintessential
part of the “India experience”. It is here
