IT major, Hexaware Technologies, is open to inorganic expansion and would consider any good buy in the remote infrastructure management and BPO spaces, a top company official said.

"We are open to good acquisitions, especially in the remote infrastructure management and BPO spaces. We will look at those companies which we can integrate well with our work culture," Hexaware's Founder and Executive Chairman, Atul Nishar, told reporters here today.
