Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi Inaugurates New Boeing HQ in India
On January 19, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the new Boeing India Engineering & Technology Center (BIETC) campus in Bengaluru (Bangalore). The building features a 30m VS1 facade, 14m of which is a clear spanning unreinforced aluminum curtain wall—a world record.
This new technology center is located on a 43-acre campus, which is Boeing’s largest facility outside of the United States.
“Boeing said that the BIETC will become a cornerstone for partnering with India on next generation products and services for the global aerospace and defence industry,” reported The Hindu.
“The Prime Minister also launched the Boeing Sukanya Program that aims to support the entry of more girl children from across India into the country’s growing aviation sector.”
