AT&T expects India to remain 'strategic priority'

NEW DELHI: US telecom giant AT&T expects India to remain a 'strategic priority' in Asia to provide global connectivity services to multinational businesses.

"We provide global virtual private network (VPN) connectivity and applications services to multinational businesses, and expect India to remain a strategic priority for AT&T in the long term," said Sanjiv Bhagat, managing director at AT&T Global Network Services India.

The US major took international long distance (ILD), national long distance (NLD) and internet service provider (ISP) licences in the country in 2006 and started providing services in 2007.

"As the Indian economy takes the growth trajectory, we see more multinational clients coming to India and more Indian companies turning multinationals, and we will focus on serving their needs," Bhagat told ET.

The company is placing great emphasis on its cloud services that includes running applications on AT&T cloud; offering in-house cloud services to businesses; and enabling customers to use its network to connect to other provider clouds.

Last year, AT&T entered into a network-to-network interconnect agreement with top mobile operator Bharti Airtel, which allows its customers to access more than 100 Indian cities through Airtel's more than 130 multiprotocol label switching (MPLS)-enabled IP network nodes.

AT&T, which has presence in six locations in the country, has invested heavily in a 15,000-km undersea cable network between India and Europe, known as Europe India Gateway and the 20,000-km Asia-America Gateway that connects Southeast Asia with the United States.
