It’s exciting to see the world’s enthusiasm on GenAI’s potential, its impact on efficiency, revenue growth, and customer engagement. As the AI landscape evolves, India HQ-organisations and GCCs have to keep ensuring that their talent is cutting edge and gets more hands-on with its real-world capabilities.
