I stand with NASSCOM on this pressing issue. Bangalore's future looks promising as the industry's firm stance prompts politicians to reconsider. Surprisingly, other political parties remain silent, opting for a wait-and-see approach. It is encouraging to witness the industry's collective influence in driving positive change. #NASSCOM #Bangalore #IndustryInfluence

India’s Global Capability Centers (#GCCs) are experiencing a significant transformation. Recent data indicates that approximately one-third of existing GCCs are expanding their presence within the country, with half aiming to do so within the next five years. This trend is driven by the need for diverse talent and the desire to mitigate risks associated with location concentration. By establishing multiple centers across various regions, companies can tap into a broader talent pool and ensure operational resilience. The impact of this expansion is substantial. GCCs contribute over 1% to India’s GDP and significantly boost service exports. The market size of India’s GCCs is projected to grow from $64.6 billion in fiscal 2024 to between $99 billion and $105 billion by 2030. This growth is not limited to traditional tech hubs like Bengaluru and Hyderabad. There’s a noticeable shift towards Tier 2 cities, offering cost advantages and access to untapped talent. As we witness this evolution, several questions arise: 1) How can organizations ensure that their multi-GCC strategy aligns with their global objectives while catering to local dynamics? 2) What measures should be taken to maintain a cohesive corporate culture across multiple centers in diverse locations? 3) How can companies leverage the unique strengths of each region to foster innovation and drive global competitiveness? #gics #techoutsourcing #beyondmetros #talentavailability Follow us on #ceosgurukul #firsttimeceos https://lnkd.in/dmg4m2E7

#2024 has already witnessed some major #mergers and #acquisitions, and the momentum continues. If education sectors and EdTech startups truly collaborate, where could this transformation take the education industry? From democratizing learning access to revolutionizing skill-based training, the possibilities are endless in the innovation, technology, and collaboration could redefine the future of education. It raises an question, should we still pay separately for #schools and #EdTech platforms for basic coaching, especially for entrance exams that schools may not be equipped to handle due to a lack of skilled staff? 🤔 #EducationInnovation #EdTech #Collaboration #FutureOfEducation #schools #indianedtech #Unacademy #AllenInstitute

From a humble 900 sq. ft. 3-bedroom apartment to five expansive offices in five major cities, Tredence's journey in India has been extraordinary. India, with its immense strategic importance, stands as a pivotal talent hub and a rapidly growing demand market for us. Building on this momentum, we are expanding our presence with new offices in Pune and Kolkata while upgrading our facilities in Bengaluru and Chennai. Our goal? To reach 4,000 employees by mid-2025, adding 1,500+ professionals across data science, AI, and analytics roles. As we work towards enhancing our capabilities and scaling our operations, these centers and our growing talent pool will be instrumental in driving innovation, supporting global initiatives, and meeting the evolving needs of our clients worldwide. This expansion allows us to deepen our partnerships in the manufacturing, healthcare, retail, and CPG sectors while also venturing into BFSI and Healthcare and Life Sciences. We're not just growing in size but also in impact—committing 10% of our revenue towards future innovation and launching GenAI upskilling programs to nurture the next generation of AI professionals.

An exhilarating experience learning from leading #IndianStartups at #nasscom #FutureForge event in Bangalore. A one-of-a-kind platform that enables the brightest minds to meet the greatest in the industry. #DeepTech startups are the future given the pace at which the technological landscape is changing. In this scenario, key themes below are going to play a disruptive role: 1) Quantum - Not just about memory, or computing, Quantum is going to impact materials, sensing, and communication like never before. Industry efforts should move beyond use case identification and deployment to commercialization. 2) SpaceTech - This #space is buzzing with interest and activity. Supported by Govt. of India, with a venture capital fund of INR 1,000 cr, it is expected to be a groundbreaker as we envision the future of mobility, delivery, surveillance, and whatnot. 3) HealthTech - Moving beyond #digitalhealth to #intelligenthealth imperative, wherein AI plays an integral role across the healthcare spectrum is much anticipated and a dire necessity. nasscom insights Achyuta Ghosh Kritika M Dhiraj Sharma #nasscomfutureforge #deeptech #quantum #spacetech #healthtech

Three data points highlighting dynamic shifts in consumer behavior and financial health in India. We have more gamers now than disciplined investors. 1. Fantasy gaming company Dream11 onboarded 55 million new users in 2023, taking its total registered user to 210 million, the company’s CEO and co-founder Harsh Jain.

Indian Mutual Funds have currently about 8.70 crore (87 million)  SIP accounts through which investors regularly invest in Indian Mutual Fund schemes.

Fully agree with Dheeraj. We have seen most of the Indian SaaS companies to be point solutions without any "interoperability" in the "suite", and absence of a backing platform which is designed such that the suite could be programmed and extended by ecosystem participants to cater to the requirements of enterprise companies. Most of these concepts are fairly new. Absense of a well designed platform backing the product limits the GTM and TAM, and companies get capped out in size. ps: my thoughts, not my employer's.

Some thoughts on Indian IT sector. Indian IT industry has never seen change at a scale and in the areas than it is seeing now. There have been external factors like geopolitics and wars affecting it & internal factors like increasing tech startups and JAM trinity catalyzing the industry change. It mainly has two kinds of players: 1️⃣ Digital Change Agents: These are solution providers serving public. Fintech is revolutionizing finance, e-commerce is booming, and new sectors like Q-commerce (super-fast delivery), EdTech (education technology), and HealthTech are rapidly transforming their respective landscapes. India boasts a young, tech-savvy population fueling the adoption of these services. 2️⃣ Digital Enablers: These are sitting behind the scenes and they are IT service providers, the cloud service providers, and the automation experts. These companies provide the crucial infrastructure and services that keep the digital change agents running smoothly. India's edge lies in its large talent pool and cost-competitive solutions. The uncertain, rapidly evolving future demands visionary, elemental change to incorporate following factos for both these kind of players. Focus on Emerging Technologies: Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Blockchain, and Internet of Things (IoT) will be playing a bigger role. These technologies need to be integrated across sectors, creating a more interconnected and intelligent ecosystem. Growth of Domestic Market: The Indian domestic IT market itself is poised for significant growth. As internet penetration increases in smaller towns and cities, the demand for IT services will surge. Challenges and Skilling Up: Learn - Unlearn - Relearn is currently at the core of this industry. It faces challenges like automation of internal processes (Yes, the services that will impact jobs for clients of IT players are also impacting their jobs.), potentially impacting jobs and the need to constantly upskill the workforce. Addressing these issues will be crucial for sustained growth.
