From Captives to Digital Twins: The Evolution of GCCs in India The Spoke-Shore initiative is transforming India into a top destination for Global Capability Centers (GCCs). Since the 1990s, GCCs have evolved from basic captive units to become true 'digital twins' of their parent companies. This initiative aims to expand GCCs beyond Bengaluru, targeting 5000 companies and startups across Tier 2 and 3 cities in India by 2026. This growth is expected to create 1 million new jobs and bring in diverse industries and innovative solutions. The Spoke-Shore initiative is all about targeting 5000 companies and startups across Tier 2 and 3 cities by 2026. This means we're not just talking about growth in numbers but in opportunities. GCCs are rapidly advancing, focusing on flexible structures that allow in-house teams to concentrate on core work while partnering with external providers. Today, 65% of GCCs have digital product delivery capabilities. This isn't just a statistic; it's a testament to India's strong innovation culture and our deep-tech startup ecosystem. By 2030, GCCs are projected to host 15% of Forbes 2000 enterprises, potentially employing 1 million professionals. To support this growth, business leaders must prioritize creating collaborative work environments to retain top talent. Of course, there are challenges—slow growth, tighter monetary policies, and rising inflation. But let's not forget, India is resilient. This expansion of GCCs is more than just a business strategy and we are on the brink of something big. #GCCsInIndia #TechInnovation #DigitalTransformation

Thanks, Dr. Jeffrey Funk, for your detailed assessment. Greatly appreciated. This doesn't mean that "AI" isn't an important tool, but it's not a magical tool you plug in, and good schtuff happens. There is a lot of work required to first understand your organization's key business and operational initiatives (that is, how does your organization create value for its stakeholders), the desired outcomes, the key decisions you need to optimize, and the KPIs and metrics against which to measure outcomes and decision effectiveness. And also remember, that "AI" is not just a single tool, but is a category that includes many different types of "AI" including Analytical, Causal, Generative, and Autonomous. Dang, these AI tools are really powerful, but only when used properly and only when used to address opportunities and challenges of significance. #SchmarzoSpeaks #DataStrategist #DataScience #IOT #BigData #AI #ML #DataTransformation #DataManagement #DataEconomics #DesignThinking #GenAI #AILiteracy #DataLiteracy #IWork4Dell #AI4IA

Thanks to TM Forum, I recently had the privilege of sharing my insights on how AI is revolutionizing enterprises and enabling telecom operators to reimagine their future in the era of Enterprise 2.0.  In this interview, I highlighted the following:  ➡️How operators are unlocking new revenue streams, enhancing customer experiences, and driving efficiencies by intertwining technology and telecom at the advent of AI. ➡️Operators are shifting from merely driving productivity to unlocking value through innovative products, new customer segments, and AI-powered business operations, leading to unprecedented value creation. ➡️By 2025, telecom Capex/Opex is expected to drop by 7-10% compared to 2022. This presents a golden opportunity for operators to optimize their spending landscape through AI and reinvest these savings into business innovations. Ultimately, these innovations can help operators build new products, serve new customer segments, and make B2B2C connections a reality, driving revenue and profitability while continuing to invest in transformation cycles. 🔗Watch the full video here: https://lnkd.in/gt5QfEiY #Cognizant #AI #Telecom #Technology #Innovation #Enterprise2.0 #IntuitionEngineered Ravi Kumar S, Surya Gummadi, Antonella Bonanni, Anand Srinivasan, Vijay Anand, Shane Brentham, Neeraj Deuskar, Bala Shanmugakumar

Unfortunately, my inference about the “third winter” of AI is receiving more and more elements that confirm it rather than refute it. We are being influenced by massive marketing campaigns to believe that AI brings productivity in a fluid and easy way. And that it is a technology that will help promote ESG concepts. What is presented as reality is the opposite. On the E side, we see more predatory mining to meet the demand for rare metals. A new agenda resurrecting nuclear energy (see Three Mile Island) and using natural resources as cooling water without control. On the S side, we are investing billions of dollars in a proposal to increase global productivity that would improve prosperity for all, but even Nobel laureate Acemoglu has already warned about the discrepancies in the theoretical calculation of this gain - in some discussions he speaks of ~0.5% while some investment banks and analysis houses speak of ~10%. This savings will be lacking in the future and the most affected side, I have no doubt, will be projects linked to social responsibility. Finally, for G, we see the imminent risk of corporate information being shared without due control because it is used to train models. Disrespect for individual privacy and general data privacy regulations. In short, we still have time to think critically and try to mitigate the effects and once again have a “winter” that will postpone the intelligent use of technology to produce prosperity, not only for big tech and its executives, but for everyone.

🌐 Unlocking the Power of Next-Generation Technologies for Data Leverage As businesses continue their digital transformation journey, it’s crucial to recognize the pivotal role that emerging technologies play in shaping our network infrastructure. Let’s delve into how SD-WAN, Edge Networking, 5G, and IoT intersect to create a dynamic ecosystem for data utilization: SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network):SD-WAN is more than just an acronym; it’s a game-changer. By dynamically managing and optimizing wide area networks, SD-WAN ensures efficient connectivity across geographically dispersed locations. Why does it matter? SD-WAN enhances data flow, reduces latency, and provides secure access to cloud resources. It’s the backbone that supports our digital ambitions. Edge Networking:The edge is where the action happens. As data proliferates, edge computing brings processing closer to the data source, minimizing latency and enabling real-time decision-making. Why does it matter? Edge networking accelerates data processing, making it ideal for applications like autonomous vehicles, smart cities, and industrial automation. 5G Revolution:5G isn’t just about faster downloads; it’s a catalyst for innovation. With its high bandwidth and low latency, 5G enables transformative experiences like augmented reality, remote surgery, and smart factories. Why does it matter? 5G fuels edge devices, creating a seamless fabric for data exchange. It’s the highway on which IoT devices travel. IoT (Internet of Things):Billions of connected devices form the IoT ecosystem. From smart thermostats to industrial sensors, these devices generate a wealth of data. Why does it matter? IoT data is the lifeblood of informed decision-making. Whether optimizing supply chains or predicting equipment failures, IoT drives efficiency. 🚀 The Future Awaits: As we embrace these technologies, we must also address security, scalability, and interoperability. Dynamic segmentation, identity-based security, and network slicing are essential components. Why does it matter? Our ability to harness data depends on our adaptability to these evolving paradigms. Let’s engage in a dialogue! How do you envision the convergence of SD-WAN, Edge Networking, 5G, and IoT shaping our data-driven future?
