Why GCCs Are India’s Silent Revolution | Suresh Kuruvadi | TEDxKristu Jayanti University

Описание: How did India transform from a technology support hub into a global innovation powerhouse?

In this insightful talk, Suresh Kuruvadi unpacks the rise of Global Capability Centers (GCCs) and their powerful role in shaping India’s economic and technological growth. From the first GCC established in 1985 to today’s thriving ecosystem of nearly 2,000 centers, he explains how India became a strategic destination for global innovation.

Drawing from over 30 years of leadership experience, Suresh highlights the key pillars of successful GCCs — visionary leadership, customer proximity, research culture, global exposure, and strong domain expertise in the age of AI.

This talk challenges professionals and students alike to think beyond coding and cost advantage — and instead focus on problem-solving, innovation, and global impact.

Because the future of technology isn’t just about building software.
It’s about building capability. Suresh Kuruvadi is an Independent Director, GCC specialist, and ESG strategist with 30+ years of leadership across technology, real estate, media, and global business services .
