On the selection of Malaysia for its first Global Delivery Campus, Mr Harish Nim commented, “Cyberjaya in Malaysia without doubt, is one of the best locations in the region to host our campus. The excellent infrastructure, support from the government and MDeC, favourable business environment, and a growing talent pool are just some of the reasons for our choice. Our Global Delivery Campus in Cyberjaya will be a key component in our global delivery framework”. In 2008, Emerio will unveil Phase I of its environmentally aligned campus.
