Apollo Tyres Opens Digital Innovation Hub In London

 

Apollo Tyres has now opened its digital innovation hub in London. The center will use AI and Machine Learning technologies to solve some of the complex manufacturing problems.

Neeraj Kanwar, Vice Chairman & Managing Director, Apollo Tyres Ltd, said, "This visit is considered very important for the post-Brexit UK- India relations. Our London office is the nerve centre of a $2.5 billion global organisation impacting 20,000 employees worldwide. We have over 130 employees across six business enterprises, ranging from advanced manufacturing, new technologies, artificial intelligence and digital freight in the UK alone. We have invested £5 Million in the Digital Innovation Hub and are expected to give a fillip to our Digitalisation journey and other investments in cloud and data computing."

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson said, "Trade and investment between the UK and India are creating good jobs and sustaining livelihoods in both of our countries. I’m very pleased that Apollo Tyres has decided to join the legions of Indian companies investing in the UK, boosting our technology sector and driving economic growth."

The announcement comes at a time when UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson is on a two-day visit to India.

The strategic digital applications for the digital innovation hub are being engineered and architected in the UK, and the specialist companies in London are being consulted to help with the complex application development.
