The Rise of Global Capability Centers

The rise of Global Capability Centers (GCCs) in India is reshaping international business operations thanks to the country's standing in technology and its growing market. Why this is relevant and what it means for global real estate portfolios.

Recent data from Zinnov reveals a remarkable trend:

- Global roles in India have surged from 175 in 2015 to 6,500 in 2023
- Projections indicate this could reach 30,000 by 2030

This growth confirms a pivotal shift - GCCs are evolving from back offices to strategic decision-making hubs. Indian GCCs are increasingly trusted with larger mandates.

For global companies, this trend presents both opportunities and challenges:

1. Talent: How can we secure the best talent? How will the rise of global roles in India impact worldwide talent acquisition and retention?

2. Innovation: What implications does this have for driving innovation within multinational corporations?

3. Business Strategy: How should companies adjust their global strategies to leverage this shift?

4. Corporate Real Estate: Forward-thinking companies must reassess their real estate portfolios to support this growth locally, stay competitive in attracting top talent and ensure efficiency in their portfolio elsewhere.

India is a growing market and will become more and more important. As Indian GCCs continue to expand their influence within global companies, it's crucial for businesses to adapt and position themselves to benefit from this trend.

What are your thoughts? How is your organization preparing for this shift?
