She said, "There are as many as 6000 engineers in India and it is a very important design centre. We are constantly scaling up our design pools, I was in India six weeks ago and we have a terrific team assisting and working there in our designs. We are totally committed to India, I met top government officials during my recent visit."
Su is a Taiwanese-American business executive and electrical engineer, who is the President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of AMD.
Early in her career, Su worked at Texas Instruments, IBM and Freescale Semiconductor in engineering and management positions
She added that while AMD is totally committed to India, it is excited about the market and Indian engineers' contribution to our chiplets which are at the core of AMD's business. While India is important in the AMD eco system, globally AMD provides the cutting edge by giving more for less as embracing AMD reduces opex and capex costs.
She also said that inflation and rising energy prices are a global problem and AMD presents all encompassing large opportunities in energy efficiencies.
In India, AMD is scaling up training to ramp-up skill sets for even higher productivity. In a global environment where energy constraints are a real issue, AMD is giving crucial efficiency and ancillary goals and gains.
