WS Audiology amplifies presence in India with state-of-the-art hub in Bengaluru

Bengaluru: In a resounding step towards transforming hearing healthcare in India, WS Audiology (WSA), the global leader in hearing solutions, has unveiled its brand-new commercial and production hub in Bengaluru.

This strategic expansion marks a significant milestone in WSA’s commitment to making hearing care more accessible, affordable, and effective for millions across the country.

The new facility — operating as WS Audiology India — will serve as a powerhouse of innovation, bringing together cutting-edge production capabilities, robust commercial operations, and a growing talent pool under one roof.

This move further strengthens WSA’s footprint in one of its fastest-growing markets in the Asia-Pacific region.

“India has been one of our most dynamic markets,” said Avinash Pawar, Country Manager, WSA India. “What started with a small team has now grown into a network that includes offices in Delhi, Hyderabad, and now this new flagship in Bengaluru. With the rapid rise in demand, this hub will allow us to scale efficiently and serve our customers even better.”

According to the World Health Organization, nearly 6.3 percent of India’s population suffers from significant hearing loss.

WSA’s expanded operations aim to tackle this challenge head-on through its Triple A approach — Awareness, Affordability, and Accessibility — ensuring that no one is left unheard.

Beyond business, WSA India has made a meaningful impact through public sector partnerships and CSR programmes, supplying hearing aids via government initiatives and donating devices to underserved communities.

The inauguration of the Bengaluru hub was attended by dignitaries from both the Danish Embassy in India and WSA’s regional leadership, highlighting the global significance of this expansion.

“WSA’s growth in India is a shining example of the powerful health innovation partnership between Denmark and India,” said Rasmus Abildgaard Kristensen, Ambassador of Denmark to India.

“It showcases how Danish-rooted companies are contributing to India’s health tech transformation by creating jobs and delivering world-class healthcare solutions.”

Olivier Chupin, Regional President for Asia Pacific at WS Audiology, emphasized the company’s enduring belief in India’s potential: “India is not just a market — it’s a long-term investment in people, partnerships, and possibilities. This new office reflects our vision to bring ‘Wonderful Sound for All’ and solidifies India’s role in our global growth journey.”

With over 200 professionals across production, sales, marketing, and operations, the Bengaluru facility is built for growth.
