Over the past three years, India has emerged as the largest investor in London as Indian companies continue to play a pivotal role in the capital city’s economic growth; 31 new Indian companies were established in London in 2023, followed by 23 in 2024, and a game changing nine companies have already set up in just the first two months of this new financial year.
Earlier this year fintech firms such as Paytm, India’s largest digital payments app, announced plans to invest in the UK to accelerate access to affordable digital payments and credit for small businesses. WNS, a digital-led business transformation services company founded in India with a $2.7bn market cap, will expand their London presence with a new office alongside an AI design hub. Similarly, Mphasis, an Indian tech business having successfully established an Innovation hub in London last year are now exploring how to scale their operations in the country. Indian unicorn and SaaS platforms looking to expand their global footprint therefore see many benefits by establishing their presence in London as it offers access to VC funds, a gateway to markets in Europe and America and most fundamentally a wider exposure.
Ashish Devalekar, Executive Vice President and Head of Europe, Mphasis, said: “The UK remains an innovation powerhouse and a global hub for world-leading businesses and talent. At Mphasis, we have steadily expanded our presence in the region over the past years, and we are now on the trajectory to double the headcount through our London Innovation Hub which we opened late last year.
