India's Tier-2 GCC Growth Faces Infrastructure and AI Talent Challenges
India's expansion of global capability centres (GCCs) into Tier-2 cities faces challenges in infrastructure and specialized AI talent. A 3AI QuantX report highlights a 20-25% gap in advanced AI roles, with less than 15% of talent having full AI lifecycle expertise. While infrastructure issues like roads and connectivity deter global executives, Tier-2 locations may benefit from lower employee attrition. GCCs are expected to increase leadership in product engineering and AI platforms by 2026, emphasizing the need for skilled talent and supportive infrastructure.
