Blockchain a key technology as EY India boosts digital services

There is a massive opportunity in India and therefore a need to hire digital talent, EY says

Professional services firm EY is set to hire 2,000 employees in India over the next three years as it looks to expand its digital solutions offering.

The bulk of the hiring will be in the areas of blockchain, analytics, intelligent automation, artificial intelligence and tax technology.

“There is significant capital available for new startups and big Indian companies are investing in digital,” says Ram Sarvepalli, leader, advisory services India and partner, emerging markets centre at EY.

“The government is heavily investing in digital from a citizen services perspective. Many of the traditional customer-oriented industries are trying to find models which allow access to customers to tier-two, tier-three towns from a digital perspective. There are regulatory changes like GST coming in and e-filing and automation of central and state govt departments … all of this is triggering a massive opportunity and the need for hiring digital talent.”
