Dallas Tech Jobs Created by Indian Outsourcing Company

An international company's effort to expand into the American market will help create Dallas tech jobs.

Infosys Technologies Limited, which is the second-largest outsourcing firm in India, recently announced that it will launch Infosys Technologies Inc., a subsidiary based in Dallas. That branch will be responsible for garnering information technology contracts from state and local governments.

It is estimated those contracts could reach about $59.5 billion through 2012. While the company has not yet disclosed the exact number of people it plans to hire, experts predict that number could initially be in the hundreds and grow over time.
