NeST is developing software for Toshiba's medical imaging equipment


THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Toshiba Medical Systems Corporation (TMSC), a global leader in the medical imaging equipment business, has decided to strengthen its partnership with Network Systems and Technologies (Private) Limited (NeST).

NeST sources told The Hindu here that this was announced during the visit of president of the TMSC Masamichi Katsurada to the Offshore software Development Centre (ODC) that the NeST is operating for TMSC at the NeST campus at Technopark here on Thursday.

They said the partnership between the NeST and the TMSC had begun at a modest scale way back in 2003 when NeST started operating the ODC for TMSC, with 30 software professionals.

The number of software professionals rose up to 220 late last year and has now increased to 300. They will be developing software for Toshiba's next generation of medical imaging equipments. The number of software professionals working at the ODC will go up to 400 by the end of 2007, NeST sources said. A NeST press release quoted the visiting president of the TMSC as having said: "We are truly impressed by the quality and technical standards set by NeST engineers. Over the years this ODC has been surprising us with its offshore delivery capability both in terms of quality and scalability. We look forward to NeST's valuable support as our relationship enters a critical phase of major expansion."
