MicroGCC
Accelerate innovation with specialized & agile Micro Global Capability Centers in India.
Instead of building large, complex offshore centers, deploy nimble innovation hubs with 10-100 highly specialized professionals who can rapidly prototype, experiment, and scale cutting-edge solutions for your business.
"Establish specialized, agile Micro GCCs in India that drive breakthrough innovation, reduce costs by 60-70%, and deliver competitive advantages through focused expertise in AI/ML, product development, R&D, and emerging technologies."
Key Value Proposition
The Innovation Challenge Every Growing Company Faces
Global companies struggle to maintain innovation velocity while managing spiraling R&D costs and talent shortages. Traditional approaches of hiring expensive local talent or setting up large GCCs are no longer sustainable for focused innovation initiatives.

The Hard Reality: Innovation is Getting More Expensive and Slower
While you're competing for scarce AI/ML talent and spending millions on R&D infrastructure, agile competitors are leveraging specialized innovation hubs to move faster and cheaper.
The window for breakthrough innovation is shrinking, and traditional approaches aren't keeping pace.
Key Innovation Challenges
1
Specialized Talent Scarcity
Critical shortages in AI/ML, data science, blockchain, and emerging tech expertise are limiting innovation capacity
2
Skyrocketing Innovation Costs
R&D and innovation budgets consume 15-25% of revenue, with uncertain ROI and lengthy development cycles
3
Slow Innovation Cycles
18-24-month development timelines for breakthrough technologies while market windows shrink rapidly
4
Lack of Innovation Focus
Large teams spread across multiple initiatives without deep specialization in breakthrough technologies
5
Limited Access to Global Talent Ecosystems
Missing opportunities to tap into world-class talent pools and innovation ecosystems outside home markets
