Satyam Global Life Network, a wing of Satyam Computer Services, which provides technology support to the Emergency Management and Research Institute (EMRI), is now looking at offering its services offshore.

Speaking to Business Standard, EMRI chief executive officer Venkat Changavalli, said there had been requests from Egyptian and African countries for replication of the EMRI services.

Though there are no plans at present to extend its footprint to other countries, Satyam Global is planning to tie up with some local partners there for technology transfer. A few European agencies too have shown interest in the technology. “Talks are on and it will take two months to forge an alliance with the partners,” Venkat said.
