Hyderabad Campus is the largest Microsoft campus outside of the United States and the direction is to develop from the existing facilities on this 54-acre site a smart, energy efficient campus aligned to the Sustainability, Diversity & Inclusivity (D&I) and Digital Transformation (DT) goals of Microsoft.
Currently the campus is a collection of four separate office buildings, a standalone multi-level car park (MLCP), central kitchen and ancillary buildings placed within a landscaped environment with numerous notable geological features. It is the desire to create a Master Plan that roadmaps a connected and accessible campus and to appropriately locate future buildings with a holistic approach to the entire campus environment.
