Global Expertise Meets Local Ambition: Exclusive Interview with Caliber Interconnect Founder/CEO Suresh Babu
Transcript
Sir, you know, you have seen your company, you know, growing to a thousand range of staff, and, you know, you see the opportunity also, like you were operating from Coimbatore, Singapore and Bangalore. And what is that, you know, sir, you're trying to bring in some kind of a scaling things at your office, so that, you know, you provide complete end-to-end solutions in semiconductor testing, starting from design to packaging? Yes, sir. So, we just started with the design.
Over a period of time, we have grown as an important player in the semiconductor supply chain. So, our services includes test engineering, test hardware design and development, package designing, simulation, and kind of some amount of manufacturing also. We are also deeply planning to get into some kind of advanced manufacturing also in the course of time.
Right now, our team is very busy with, you know, the positive market due to the AI boom. So, we are growing. And very good.
That is my second question, sir. If you look at, you know, the growth, your count was around 500 plus, I think, a few years back. Now, we're going to 1000.
What a significant growth we have seen in your staff count itself. Where do you see the opportunities, sir? You have this testing, packaging, as well as some other services, which is really driving that growth? Actually, it's the test engineering. The market is very good recently because, you know, the electronics is everywhere.
