CrowdStrike has significantly expanded its operations in the Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ) region by establishing a new Innovation and Development Center in Pune, India. This center focuses on advancing engineering, research, and development to support CrowdStrike's growing global footprint, particularly through the enhancement of the Falcon platform's capabilities. The Pune center is not only a hub for engineering innovation but also hosts finance and sales departments to support CrowdStrike's broader business operations in India. Additionally, the center is involved in educational initiatives through the CrowdStrike Foundation, offering internships to local engineering students and engaging in community outreach efforts. The center aims to address the shortage of challenging projects for talented graduates in India and contribute to the development of cutting-edge cybersecurity technology. Furthermore, CrowdStrike has appointed Jagdish Mahapatra as the managing director for Asia, enhancing its commitment to global expansion and talent acquisition.
