Hyderabad, India – JPMorganChase today kicked off DEVUP, its firmwide software engineering conference, for the first time in India. Taking place from March 11-13 at its Global Technology Centre in Hyderabad, DEVUP is a one-of-a-kind technology innovation forum where 350 software developers, data scientists, and other technologists from across the firm's global technology centres convene for three action-packed days of engineering excellence.

JPMorganChase launched the conference in 2022 in the United States and this year’s inaugural event in Hyderabad underscores the bank’s commitment to fostering innovation and collaboration among its technology workforce in India. About one third of the bank’s approximately 63K technologists are based in India, across Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru and Pune.

"India is an important part of JPMorganChase's global technology strategy. Our technologists here are critical to the bank's innovation and business success. Bringing DEVUP to India demonstrates our continued commitment to invest in our talent and celebrate the innovation and creativity that our engineers bring to life every day,” said Lori Beer, Global Chief Information Officer, JPMorganChase.

"We hope that with this first DEVUP in India, our technologists are encouraged to share what they learn, push the boundaries of what’s possible, and continue to deliver cutting-edge solutions that drive value for our best-in-class businesses," continued Beer.

The conference agenda features 100 speakers covering topics that range from engineering excellence, cybersecurity and cloud modernization to delivering data and AI/ML at speed and scale through keynotes, breakouts, interactive workshops and a hackathon. Speakers from various roles and specialties were selected through an abstract submission process.

Participants are encouraged to build connections with their colleagues, solve challenges together, deliberate on emerging technologies, and discuss priorities related to the bank's technology strategy.

“We are thrilled to introduce DEVUP to India for the very first time. It is an honor to be part of this journey, showcasing the power and innovative excellence of our developer community. I am excited to host some of our brightest minds and most passionate developers from around the globe,” said Vibhavari Jahagirdar, Head of Global Technology for India and Co-lead for Global Post Trade Technology, JPMorganChase.
