With a growing customer base of more than 1,200 companies and a strong R&D presence that helps shape global product roadmaps, Infineon is proud to support India’s ambitions in digitalization, decarbonization and technological leadership.”
To bring this vision to life, Infineon announced three new strategic partnerships at OktoberTech™ Bengaluru spanning education, consumer technology, and clean energy, each demonstrating how semiconductor technology can translate directly into measurable progress for India over the next two decades:
- Scaler: Infineon Technologies and Scaler, an institution built on the belief that education should be “Built Different, Designed to Last,” announced a partnership to equip Scaler’s labs with Infineon’s maker kits, enabling students to design and build hardware and software solutions for physical AI applications. As part of the collaboration, Infineon will introduce relevant course content from its Infineon Academy into Scaler’s curriculum, complementing classroom learning with real-world semiconductor engineering expertise. Infineon engineers will also contribute guest lectures and mentoring support to Scaler students. To further nurture hands-on innovation, both organizations will jointly organize make-a-thons and hackathons designed to give students direct experience in solving real engineering challenges.
- Titan Company Limited: Infineon Technologies and Titan Company Limited, part of the Tata Group and a leading Indian manufacturer of fashion accessories including jewellery, watches, and eyewear, announced a partnership to equip Titan’s Fastrack MYND Smartwatches with integrated payment and transit capabilities. Through this collaboration, Infineon’s SECORA™ Connect and SECORA™ Wallet solutions will bring secure, seamless payment and transit functionality to the Fastrack MYND line, with full compatibility with RuPay.
- Zenergize: Infineon Technologies and Zenergize, a company built on the philosophy of power electronics “engineered in India, built for the world,” unveiled a new 15kW Grid-Tied Inverter designed for residential and small office applications, the result of an ongoing partnership between the two companies. Infineon will supply key components for the solution, including silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs, gate drivers, current sensors, and PSOC™ microcontrollers, enabling Zenergize to deliver a high-efficiency, locally engineered power solution for India’s growing distributed energy market.
