Jaguar Land Rover opens Innovation Hub in Bengaluru, India to collaborate with startups on future products and services.
Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has announced the opening of its latest Open Innovation Hub at Bengaluru in India to identify and work closely with startups to develop the next generation of products and services that will help to define its future client experiences.
The India Hub will focus on deep tech including artificial intelligence, big data and analytics, internet of things, ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) and sensors and devices, the company said in a statement.
The Hub, which has forged partnership with the corporate innovation platform and investor Plug and Play, will bring together industry, government, academia, and other parties.
They will discuss and develop industry leading solutions for JLR, such as optimising batteries for electric powertrains, identifying optimal locations for charging infrastructure and delivering more advanced ADAS.
The new Hub is the fifth to open since JLR’s Open Innovation Programme launched in April 2022. The programme has engaged with over 2,500 start-ups globally, resulting in 33 formal collaborations so far, it added.
JLR’s innovation director Igor Murakami in a statement said, “India’s rapidly growing startup sector and JLR’s already established presence and close links to the Tata Group make the country the ideal location for the newest Innovation Hub.”
“Through global collaboration, JLR’s Open Innovation Programme is connecting us to the next generation of talent and technologies, and the addition of a hub in India will support JLR’s engineering teams to innovate quickly to support vehicle design, features and improve customer experiences,” he said.
