SAN FRANCISCO / BENGALURU — February 2026 — Anthropic has announced the opening of a new office in Bengaluru, marking a significant expansion of its presence in India and deepening partnerships across the country’s technology ecosystem.

The Bengaluru office will serve as a hub for engineering, research, and go-to-market efforts in India. Anthropic said the move reflects the country’s growing importance as a center for AI talent, enterprise innovation, and developer communities.

India is one of the fastest-growing markets for AI adoption, with startups, enterprises, and public institutions increasingly integrating advanced language models into products and workflows. Anthropic said its local presence will help it collaborate more closely with customers, academic institutions, and ecosystem partners.

In addition to establishing the office, Anthropic is building partnerships with Indian companies and organizations across sectors such as financial services, technology, education, and research. The company aims to support responsible AI deployment while adapting to local regulatory, cultural, and operational contexts.

Anthropic emphasized that safety and reliability remain central to its global expansion. Claude models deployed in India will follow the same governance and transparency principles that guide the company’s broader AI development strategy.

The Bengaluru expansion is part of Anthropic’s wider international growth plan as demand for enterprise-grade AI continues to accelerate outside the United States. By investing in local teams and partnerships, the company said it intends to support innovation while ensuring AI systems are developed and deployed responsibly in diverse markets.

With its India expansion, Anthropic signals long-term commitment to one of the world’s most dynamic technology ecosystems, positioning Bengaluru as a key node in its global AI network.
