On receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award, Mr. BVR Mohan Reddy Founder and Executive Chairman, Cyient said, “When I started Cyient (formerly Infotech Enterprises) in 1991, many global firms were not ready to outsource engineering, and similarly Indian companies did not have the risk appetite to get into this skill and technology-intensive product development sector. Our relentless focus on product and process innovation set us apart, and today we are a preferred partner for our global clients in the Aerospace & Defense sector. I am delighted to receive this award and dedicate it to the Cyient team, which has worked relentlessly to make Cyient a global leader in this space. We will continue to reinvent our business, operations, and the value we offer to our clients.”
