The highly anticipated Economic Times GCC Conclave is making a powerful comeback this year with a significantly expanded agenda and the introduction of its first-ever awards ceremony. Scheduled for September 12, 2024, at the prestigious Bangalore International Exhibition Centre (BIEC), this event promises to be a landmark gathering for India's rapidly evolving Global Capability Center ecosystem.
Expanded Agenda for Deeper Industry Engagement
Building on previous successes, the 2024 conclave has dramatically broadened its scope to address the most pressing topics facing GCCs today. The agenda will feature comprehensive discussions on artificial intelligence integration, talent management strategies, and leadership development within these centers. Industry leaders will explore how GCCs are transitioning from support functions to becoming strategic innovation hubs for global corporations.
The expanded format includes multiple specialized tracks covering technological innovation, operational excellence, and future-ready leadership. This comprehensive approach ensures that professionals at all levels—from emerging leaders to C-suite executives—will find valuable insights relevant to their specific roles and challenges.
Inaugural GCC Awards to Celebrate Excellence
A major highlight of this year's event is the introduction of the inaugural ET GCC Awards, designed to recognize and celebrate outstanding achievements within the sector. These awards will honor organizations and individuals who have demonstrated exceptional performance across multiple categories including innovation, workplace culture, and community impact.
The awards ceremony represents a significant milestone for the GCC community in India, providing well-deserved recognition for the transformative work being done within these centers. Nominations are currently open, with winners to be announced during the conclave proceedings on September 12th.
Strategic Partnerships and Industry Participation
The event is being organized in collaboration with ANSR, a leading consulting firm specializing in helping enterprises build, scale, and run GCCs. This partnership ensures the conclave delivers substantial value through carefully curated content and networking opportunities.
Expected to attract over 1,000 senior leaders from various GCCs across India, the conclave will serve as a crucial platform for knowledge sharing and strategic discussions. Participants will include managing directors, HR heads, technology leaders, and other key decision-makers who are shaping the future of Global Capability Centers in India.
The Economic Times GCC Conclave 2024 comes at a pivotal moment as India continues to strengthen its position as the world's preferred destination for Global Capability Centers. With its expanded agenda and inaugural awards, the event is poised to make significant contributions to the ongoing evolution and recognition of this vital sector within India's economic landscape.
