SplashBI, a US-headquartered enterprise data intelligence platform provider, has inaugurated its Global Capability Centre (GCC) at VSD Tech Park in Hyderabad’s Financial District. The 20,000 sq ft facility, with capacity for 275 professionals, will support platform engineering, artificial intelligence (AI), data science and global customer delivery.

The centre was inaugurated by D Sridhar Babu, Minister for IT, Electronics and Communications, Industries and Commerce, Government of Telangana. SplashBI plans to invest more than USD 100 million over the next five to seven years in infrastructure, technology and talent to expand its Hyderabad operations and strengthen its global product engineering and delivery capabilities. The company has also earmarked USD 4 million for an AI data centre to strengthen its AI infrastructure and capabilities.

SplashBI has maintained a presence in Hyderabad since 2014. The new facility brings its local teams together to support collaboration across platform engineering, AI development, domain analytics and customer delivery. Teams will work on data connectivity, business modelling, SplashAI development and customer implementations.

The centre will support the company's global workforce of 400 in serving more than 500 enterprise customers across 39 countries.

“Enterprises need a practical way to turn the data they already have into decisions they can trust,” said Naveen Miglani, CEO and Co-Founder, SplashBI. He said the Hyderabad centre would strengthen the engineering and customer expertise needed to help enterprises improve their data foundations and adopt AI with business context.

Kiran Reddy Pasham, President and Co-Founder, SplashBI, said Hyderabad offered the capabilities required to bring data architecture and business processes together. The centre's teams would develop platform capabilities and domain content to help customers connect and interpret enterprise data.

SplashBI's platform uses data models and business ontologies across human resources, finance, sales, operations and supply chain functions. These organise business records and their relationships to establish a foundation for AI applications. Its semantic layer provides shared definitions and measures, enabling AI systems to interpret information in the context of business operations.

The platform is designed to support AI applications within individual business functions as well as across an enterprise, including SplashAI and customers' wider AI initiatives.

It addresses the challenge of fragmented enterprise data spread across applications, departments and technology environments. Its capabilities include more than 100 pre-built data connectors and data transformation using a medallion architecture. The semantic intelligence layer defines measures and relationships across systems, providing a common foundation for operational reporting, dashboards and conversational analysis.
