Vizeum has won several businesses and expanded rapidly in Chennai. We are investing in a world class, state-of-the-art office, with the latest systems, technologies and connectivity. Shortly our clients in Chennai will, perhaps for the first time, have available to them, all specializations under one roof.

We will stay focused on this market in terms of our investment in our product as well as talent. My gratitude also goes out to each of our clients who have stood by us, with a special thanks to Amrutanjan and Sambhu for being the inspiration for our launch in Chennai.”
