GitHub has announced the establishment of GitHub India Private Limited, a new subsidiary aimed at supporting the rapidly growing community of developers and enterprises in India, which is home to the third-largest number of active developers on the platform. This expansion, led by General Manager Maneesh Sharma, involves building a comprehensive team across various functions to help Indian developers and enterprises adopt DevOps best practices and collaborate on global projects. The initiative also focuses on supporting open source development and empowering student developers through programs like the GitHub Hackathon Grant, which provides financial support for student hackathons. In addition to fostering the open source community, GitHub is partnering with local companies using GitHub Enterprise to enhance their software development operations and digital transformation efforts, while expanding its channel partner program to better serve enterprise customers.
