Home to companies like Infosys, Wipro, TCS, and R&D centres of global giants such as Google, Microsoft, Intel, IBM, and SAP – the city pulses with innovation and talent.

Packed with startups, incubators, and world-class institutions like the Indian Institute of Science and IIM Bangalore, Bangalore attracts both domestic and international investment.

That’s where Cool loco comes in – a smart, practical guide created by people who’ve lived it.
