Johnson Controls (NYSE: JCI), the global leader for smart, healthy and sustainable buildings, today announced the inauguration of a Global Finance Center of Excellence at Intellion Park, Gurgaon, India.

Olivier Leonetti, executive vice president and chief financial officer, Johnson Controls, said, "We are excited to open a new Global Finance Center of Excellence in India. We have picked Gurgaon for the Center due to the availability of highly-skilled talent and the city's vibrant business ecosystem. The opening of the Center also cements the company's commitment to growth in India. This is the latest in a series of significant investments in the country, including two new OpenBlue Innovation Centers in Hyderabad and Bangalore."
The new Global Finance Center of Excellence is equipped with multiple building systems from Johnson Controls: energy-efficient heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC), building automation, security and fire protection, and AI-enhanced OpenBlue applications. The Center also benefits from having the latest automation tools, including robotic process automation, using the technical strengths of the Indian workforce as well as global expertise from across the company.

For example, the premises are disability-inclusive and have amenities for mothers. The new office space is also LEED Platinum Certified, in line with the company's commitment to achieving net zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 carbon emissions by 2040– ten years ahead of the Paris Climate Agreement goal.
