Nemetschek India is set to transform the Indian AEC landscape with a comprehensive market entry strategy. “The company has structured its offerings into three segments—Conceptualize, Design, and Execute.

Our advanced BIM tools and integrated platforms will streamline workflows, reduce project timelines, and promote sustainability. Launching an office in Mumbai today, in addition to our R&D center in Hyderabad, reflects our commitment to continuous innovation and support for the local industry. We are here to build long-term relationships and contribute to India’s building industry and infrastructural development.”
