Embedded systems development has been an integral part of the Indian IT-R & D ecosystem growth. Early adopters in the Indian and multinational organisations started their embedded services practice early in their lifecycle driven by the cost advantage and access to a skilled talent pool. During the early 2000s, a plethora of global organisations set up their captive centres in India to drive embedded systems development. The industry also witnessed startups in industries such as Telecom, Consumer Electronics, Semiconductors set up their own centres at various locations across India. With the maturity of this segment, organisations are now leveraging India to drive products, services and business models innovation from India. Access to the India market has also become a key driver for organisations to drive embedded systems R & D locally. Another interesting trend is a signifi cant growth in the number of indigenous organisations working on their own innovations in Medical Equipment, Consumer Electronics, Telecom and other verticals. Innovations have also started to come out of universities and incubation centres across India. Embedded systems are becoming pervasive by the day and have now become an integral part of our lives.
