Black Box, one of Essar's flagship businesses in technology and retail vertical, recently set up a centre of excellence in Bengaluru to support its global clients. The centre is equipped with advanced research and development laboratories, command centres, a service desk, and delivery operations targeting its client needs.

The ongoing digitisation initiative of the government and the strong demand for data centres are areas the firm would evaluate, given its expertise in working with hyper-scale customers, he said.
