At the event, Ascendion CEO Karthik Krishnamurth emphasized the company’s dedication to its clients and the future of software engineering.

“We stand on the threshold of the next phase of the digital revolution where software, data, and Generative AI solutions have never been more crucial,” stated Krishnamurthy. “We have been operating in Mexico for some time now. Our newest office in Monterrey will quickly become our largest software engineering hub outside of India with a strong focus on applied AI.

Ascendion will add more than 200 jobs in Mexico in the next six months, and expects to create more than 1,500 jobs over the next three years. The project will contribute at least $100 million to the country’s economy. The company plans on making Mexico a major delivery hub for Generative AI engineering solutions, and 100% of software engineers in Mexico will become certified in AI deployment.

Ascendion’s commitment to Mexico is evident in its choice to establish its Latin American headquarters in Monterrey, which is also home to global companies such as Tesla, Unilever, Siemens, and Amazon.
