The ‘Architecting India’s Future’ event marked a key milestone in their expansion, drawing 150 industry leaders and participants.

The Nemetschek Group, a major global provider of software solutions for the AEC/O and media industries, opened its Mumbai office. The launch event, themed ‘Architecting India’s Future,’ took place at Mumbai’s historic Taj Mahal Palace and marked a crucial milestone in the company’s global expansion strategy. Key industry leaders and approximately 150 participants attended the event, which featured imaginative talks.

Following the event, the Nemetschek Group and Mumbai’s JJ College of Architecture signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This collaboration intends to promote innovation and skill development in the Indian architecture sector, following the government’s Skill Development Programme.

Nemetschek India plans to revolutionise the Indian AEC scene through a thorough market entry strategy. The organisation has divided its offerings into three categories: Conceptualise, Design, and Execute. Architects, landscape and interior designers, engineering design consultants, project management organisations, and contractors can select from a variety of product packages, such as basic, plus, professional, or comprehensive, each tailored to their requirements. The Design component also provides a kit for Bridge and Precast. Nirmalya Chatterjee, Country VP, Nemetschek Group – Indian Subcontinent, highlighted the strategic relevance of joining the Indian market at this time. “India’s construction market is poised for exponential growth, projected to become the third largest globally by 2025. Our solutions are already recognised here, and now, by engaging directly with enterprise-level customers and expanding our network of channel partners, we aim to elevate the industry standards.”

Yves Padrines, CEO of the Nemetschek Group, emphasised the overall strategy for Nemetschek in India. “With a large number of construction projects, including around 9,500 National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) projects and a booming real estate market, India represents a significant opportunity for us. Our advanced BIM tools and integrated platforms will streamline workflows, reduce project timelines, and promote sustainability. Launching an office in Mumbai today, in addition to our R&D centre in Hyderabad, reflects our commitment to continuous innovation and support for the local industry. We are here to build long-term relationships and contribute to India’s building industry and infrastructural development.”

Nemetschek India will work with local businesses and educational institutions to develop talent and promote innovation. The corporation intends to interact with local stakeholders through tailored marketing efforts, training sessions, and seminars. It seeks stakeholder feedback constantly to effectively alter its strategy to match local demands and market developments.

Committed to promoting sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR), the company will offer software for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly designs, hold workshops on sustainable construction practices, and collaborate with communities on sustainable development projects. It will also help local charities and non-profits by encouraging employees to participate in volunteer activities.

The group’s presence in the Indian market is a significant step towards promoting digitalization across the building lifecycle. The startup aspires to revolutionise the Indian AEC industry by using innovative technologies and taking an ethical approach to artificial intelligence.
