Chennai, India, 23rd
February,2026 – Amazon today
announced the opening of its second largest office in
Asia in Bengaluru. The 1.1 million square feet, 12-storey campus
will support over 7,000 employees across ecommerce, operations, payments,
technology, and seller services in India. Built on a five-acre site
approximately 15 kilometres from Kempegowda International Airport, the corporate
building was officially inaugurated by Dr. M.B. Patil, Minister for Large &
Medium Industries and Infrastructure Development, Government of Karnataka. The
new corporate building has been thoughtfully designed to bring teams together
at scale and enable collaboration, flexibility, learning, and wellbeing. The launch of this new campus is part of Amazon’s continued
investments in India. The company has already invested over $40 billion in
India and has committed to invest an additional $35 billion in India by 2030.
According to Dr. M.B. Patil,
Minister for Large & Medium Industries and Infrastructure Development,
Government of Karnataka, “Amazon’s
continued investment in Bengaluru reflects India's growing role as a global
technology and innovation hub. Large-scale campuses like Amazon’s new campus create
high-quality jobs, strengthen local ecosystem, and support India's digital
economy. We welcome investments that build long-term capability and create opportunity
for our workforce.”
According to
Samir Kumar, Country Manager Amazon India, "India continues to be a long-term priority for Amazon, and
Bengaluru has played a central role in our journey here. Over the years, the
city has been home to some of our earliest technology and business teams, and
today it remains a key hub for innovation and talent. We are grateful to Dr.
M.B. Patil for joining us to inaugurate this campus and for Government of
Karnataka’s continued support. As we build for customers in India and around
the world, we remain committed to investing in infrastructure, technology, and
talent for the long term."
The campus
brings together adaptable workspaces and collaborative zones organised into
self-sustaining neighbourhoods with meeting rooms, huddle spaces, breakout
areas, and event spaces that can host more than 200 people. Employees have
access to dedicated recreation facilities including basketball and pickleball
courts, an amphitheater, landscaped lawns, and outdoor community spaces.
Cafeterias across two floors serve a range of global cuisines.
Amazon’s new
campus represents progress in our effort to reduce carbon across our corporate
office portfolio, aligned with Amazon’s goal of reaching net-zero carbon by
2040 under The Climate Pledge. The project incorporates strategies such as responsible material
sourcing, reuse of office assets, and high-efficiency systems that are intended
to reduce embodied and operational carbon.
