Mastercard recently opened a new tech hub in Pune, marking a significant expansion of its technological capabilities in the region. Located at Bluegrass Business Park in the Yerwada area, the facility spans nearly half a million square meters and is set to become Mastercard’s largest workforce concentration in a single city, featuring capacity for more than 6,000 technologists. The hub joins Mastercard’s global network of technology centers, which includes locations in Dublin, New York, Sydney and Vancouver.
The Pune hub will focus on advancing Mastercard’s technology in several important areas, including payment safety, cybersecurity, fraud detection and digital identity. These efforts align with Mastercard’s global operations and will involve collaboration with other tech hubs to develop solutions that drive economic growth.
Mastercard says this new addition to its presence in India is designed with a focus on sustainability and employee well-being. The solar-powered hub has technology-enhanced collaborative spaces, ergonomic desks, wellness facilities like a gym and quiet room and a cafeteria that promotes healthy eating.
