About the Event
The GCC Leadership Collective 2026, hosted by Quantic in association with FPT Software, is an exclusive, closed-door gathering of senior technology and business leaders driving Global Capability Centers (GCCs) across India.
As GCCs rapidly evolve from cost centers to strategic innovation hubs, this roundtable will foster candid, peer-led discussions on the future of global delivery, AI-led transformation, and digital engineering.
The session will deep-dive into key priorities shaping modern GCCs, including cloud modernization, data and AI adoption, cybersecurity resilience, and the India+1 strategy, while addressing the real-world challenges of scaling innovation, optimizing costs, and building future-ready talent ecosystems.
Designed as an interactive and insight-driven forum, this roundtable enables leaders to exchange experiences, benchmark strategies, and co-create actionable perspectives in a trusted, high-impact setting.
