For most GCCs, the conversation has already moved beyond AI ambition. The focus now is readiness, alignment, and execution.   Across organizations, one pattern is becoming clear: AI is advancing faster than the foundations needed to scale it effectively.   The result? More pilots. Limited production.   The opportunity now is not about doing more AI. It is about strengthening the groundwork that enables it to deliver at scale.   These insights are explored in our latest whitepaper, “From Hype to ROI: Realising Enterprise Value from GenAI and Agentic AI in GCCs”, built on candid conversations with 40+ CXOs, in partnership with Analytics India Magazine.   Read the whitepaper: https://bit.ly/4nGBvqU AIM #AgenticAI #GCC #DigitalTransformation

The focus now is building with change in mind. At The Wall Street Journal’s Future of Everything conference, CEO Nigel Vaz shared a clear perspective. AI is creating a moment to reimagine how work gets done. This goes beyond adding speed to existing processes. It requires rethinking systems, decisions and operating models from the ground up. The most resilient organizations in 2026 are not built to respond faster. They are designed to adapt continuously. Thank you to Raakhee Mirchandani for moderating and to fellow panelists Bob Segert, Chairman and CEO of athenahealth, and Andreas Wetterwald, Chief Data & Analytics Officer at Travelers, for a thoughtful discussion. #WSJFutureOfEverything
