Global leaders, local impact: Supercharging India’s GCC initiatives
Register NowIndia’s GCC journey: Back office to boardroom
From users to enablers to builders: India’s global business journey has been transformative.
Global brands didn’t just set up operations here. They became part of India’s cultural and economic fabric. Nestlé shaped food habits, Hindustan Unilever became a household name, IBM and Coca-Cola redefined markets, and Texas Instruments sparked a tech revolution.
Once cost-saving back offices, GCCs are now hubs of innovation, strategy, and leadership, driving AI, automation, and digital transformation. No longer just supporting global businesses, they’re shaping them.
The next chapter? From execution to ownership. From operations to influence. From the back office to the boardroom.
