The new office, located in Salarpuria Sattva Knowledge City, has a capacity of 2,500 professionals.

Goldman Sachs International CEO Richard Gnodde said that the company’s growth story in India is compelling and enabled by the country’s extraordinary talent. Over the last two decades, Bengaluru and Hyderabad have become integral to the firm’s global activities. Our new Hyderabad office is a testament to the firm’s continued commitment to Indian talent, which is world-class.
