"Hyderabad brings together strong product, engineering, data and customer capabilities, allowing teams to support work across the technology lifecycle in close partnership with colleagues globally. Our growth in this market reflects our conviction that India will play an increasingly important role in how global technology platforms are developed, improved and scaled." Blackbaud recently onboarded its first graduate cohort in India, underscoring the company's continued investment in talent development. Through graduate hiring, professional development, and capability-building initiatives, Blackbaud is helping strengthen the pipeline of future technology talent in India. These efforts are focused on building capabilities across full-stack development, cloud engineering, customer support, sales operations, and AI-enabled tools and processes. "Technology is most valuable to social impact organizations when it removes complexity and gives people more time to focus on their mission," said Todd Lant, chief customer officer, Blackbaud. "As our customers manage growing expectations around donor engagement, transparency and measurable outcomes, it is increasingly important for us to help them realize value from their technology investments, achieve their goals more effectively, and respond with confidence to a rapidly evolving landscape. Expanding our team in Hyderabad strengthens our ability to support customer-facing teams and provide consistent, informed service across markets." The new Financial District office builds on Blackbaud's initial investment in Hyderabad and reflects the company's continued commitment to India.
