Arvind Kumar: Sunnyvale, the one
NTT vision substainable campus
and future goals. Upon its mention, Kumar is
instantly energised.
“That is a very special project, very dear
to my heart and the work I do every day
because I've always wanted to be part of
a sustainable, smart building programme.
This is the vision of our CEO, bringing NTT
companies together in one common real
estate platform, one common office, but also
make it a smart and intelligent workplace
which focuses on employee experience,
sustainability, wellness – all the key measures
that today are important. At the same time,
it has state of the art technology in terms of
sensors, automation, IoT, and so on. And on top
of that, it is a sustainable building, which means
we have a solar captive fuel cell hybrid system
with backup power being managed to back up
the building and save utility energy costs.
“This is a living, breathing showcase
of our ecosystem partners and what they
deliver together with us, how we use it
internally, and how we give back to employees.
And also it becomes a showcase to show
clients what we can do for them with these
kinds of platforms and technologies as
a solution provider.”
For Kumar, the central role NTT Global
The Future Is Our Focus.
