Lovely little office in the heart of the city, easy to get there not much traffic compared to the main R&D office on outer ring road. As always Microsoft stands out for the infrastructure, ambience, great cafeteria and awesome south Indian filter coffee shop and free visitors parking. Guests/visitors are treated very well, they make you feel nice and comfortable. Would love to go there anytime. Microsoft rocks ️
Went to meet some research guys. Vigyan bhawna as they call it is situated very near to posh vittal mallaya road. The office is quite older now and seems deserted. Not too many people. Parking would be a problem.
Attended an event here in one of the big meeting halls in the ground floor. Posh environment. Looks like a fun place for the researchers working here, creating new technologies.
This used to host both Microsoft Research (MSR) and Microsoft India development centre (MSIDC). In July 2018, development centre moved out of this campus to a new, bigger campus in Prestige Ferns Galaxy, Bellandur. Currently, only research centre is housed here. Being located in Bangalore's CBD, most of the shopping places are easily accessible from this campus. There is a Hatti kaapi outlet at the ground floor, serving hot filter coffee all day long, with optional jaggery instead of sugar. It also has HDFC ATM machine, for quick retrieval of cash.
I went for a Microsoft training here. This an office space building, more secure and well maintained. The interiors are well designed and the facilities available are good. Located in a well accessible road.
Cool place for youngsters, innovators, researchers, dreamers, technologists, social scientists, tinkerers, doers and so on. This Microsoft Research center is one of the many they have all over the world. I would like to some day spend a lot of time here to learn everything that place has done.
