IBM programme to foster NGOs in Hyd

The Corporate Services Corps (CSC), a suite of investments and programmes to help IBM employees enhance their skills and expertise, has tied up with five non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and not-for-profit organisations in Hyderabad. The programme brings 10 IBM professionals from seven countries (Denmark, US, Germany, the Netherlands, France, Spain and Austria) to Hyderabad to work on critical projects for them. Hyderabad, Pune and Bangalore are among the 17 cities around the world hosting the Phase-I of IBM’s CSC programme this year. “For IBM employees, CSC is a great learning – working at the grassroot level,” IBM director (India, South Asia) Ramesh Narasimhan, told mediapersons here on Thursday.
