Powai Ballroom: Workshop I: From Visibility to Value: Repositioning GCCs for the AI-Native Enterprise
Wednesday May 6, 2026 11:00am - 11:45am IST
GCCs have moved from backstage operators to critical drivers of enterprise transformation — but in an AI-native world, visibility alone is no longer enough. The next frontier is credible value articulation, scalable impact, and strategic positioning.In this Everest Group session, we build on our earlier exploration of GCC brand perception to examine how leading centers are translating capability into influence. Backed by latest research and market insights, we will explore how GCCs can:
• Quantify and communicate value beyond cost arbitrage to strategic impact - Why it matters
• Scale through end-to-end capability ownership rather than functional silos
• Leverage AI to reshape talent, roles, and career pathways
• Strengthen governance and metrics as enablers of trust and enterprise relevance

The session will highlight how forward-looking GCCs are not just building visibility, but earning their place as AI-native value engines — shaping enterprise strategy, attracting top talent, and driving sustained competitive advantage.

Powai Ballroom: Workshop III: From AI Pilots to Enterprise ROI: How GCCs Baseline Work, Prove Impact, and Scale Adoption
Wednesday May 6, 2026 2:00pm - 2:45pm IST
Most GCCs today are running multiple AI pilots, yet struggle with three questions:
1. What exactly improved?
2. Is productivity genuinely higher or just redistributed work?
3. Which AI initiatives deserve enterprise-scale investment?

Global Capability Centres are rapidly adopting AI across engineering, operations, finance, and support functions. However, many struggle to translate experimentation into measurable enterprise value.
This workshop will explore how leading GCCs establish pre-AI operating baselines, quantify productivity and delivery impact, and build credible ROI narratives for global stakeholders.
Participants will learn practical approaches to:
• Baseline work before AI adoption
• Measure changes in cycle time, output per FTE, and delivery efficiency
• Separate perceived gains from measurable outcomes
• Identify where AI should scale — and where it should not

Organizations that implement structured baselining are 2–3x more likely to demonstrate AI ROI, with observed improvements including 10–25% cycle time reduction and 15–30% productivity uplift in targeted workflows.
