GCC Growth in India: From Back Offices to Innovation Hubs
The Evolution of GCCs:
In the early 2000s, Global In-House Centers (GICs), the predecessors of GCCs, were synonymous with operational efficiency. They managed processes like payroll, IT support, and customer service. However, this model was just the beginning.
Today, GCC growth in India tells a different story. These centers have transitioned into innovation hubs, leading global R&D efforts, product development, and customer experience enhancements. From AI to blockchain, GCCs in India now drive mission-critical projects for global enterprises.
