Infosys Technology and Innovation Hub

Infosys hired Browning to assist in the development and construction of the Infosys Technology and Innovation Hub, a 125,000 SF state-of-the-art training center that serves as a convening ground for the development of advanced digital technologies. Infosys’ initial training programs at the Technology and Innovation Hub will utilize the learnings and best practices the company has acquired and developed through decades of experience running the world’s largest corporate university.

Infosys wanted to build the training center to one of the highest standards in sustainable design, and it has been recognized as the 2024 Indiana USGBC Green Building of the Year after having received Platinum certification under the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating system.  Browning worked closely with the architect, Browning Day, during design on key details like material selection, construction waste, and building life cycle optimization.

The Infosys Technology and Innovation Hub utilizes traditional local materials like limestone and also new materials like CarbonCure – concrete that mineralizes CO₂ in a process that enhances the concrete’s compressive strength without compromising the concrete’s quality or impacting its price, all while reducing the carbon footprint.  The use of CarbonCure on this project was featured in “Gates Notes,” read more and watch the video here.

“We pride ourselves at Browning for not only understanding how a building functions for a client, but how it fits into their corporate culture and core values,” Scott Hirschman, AIA, NCARB, president of construction at Browning.  “In addition to constructing a sustainable building, working towards pollution prevention is one of Infosys’ environmental protection initiatives.  Utilizing the CarbonCure technology was a great fit.”
