Building Future-Ready GCCsfor the World, from Bangalore.
Your integrated partner for setting up Global Capability Centres in India, Bangalore, Pune and Mumbai, across talent, real estate, technology, compliance, finance and operations.
Bangalore for the World. Pune and Mumbai for Finance and Accounting. Hyderabad for Scale.
What we do, in plain terms
We help global companies set up their own offices in India, end to end.
You decide what work to move. We do everything else, from hiring the team and finding the office to the technology, the legal entity, the compliance, the payroll and the day to day operations. You get a wholly owned India office that is faster to set up, cheaper to run and easier to scale than anything you can build alone.
