BENGALURU, June 4 (Reuters) – U.S. telecom operator T-Mobile opened its global capability center (GCC) in India on Thursday and plans to employ nearly 1,000 people by 2027, according to a statement from an Indian state government.Â
Here are some details:
• The tech centre was inaugurated in Hyderabad — capital of the southern Indian state of Telangana — where T-Mobile has leased 250,000 square feet of space, the state’s IT ministry said.
• The country’s GCCs have evolved from low-cost outsourcing hubs to local offices of global companies supporting their parent organisations in several functions.
• The telecom company’s employees at the GCC will build advanced capabilities across software engineering, DevOps, product development, data analytics, cybersecurity, among others.
• The city offers technology talent, innovation capabilities and an established ecosystem, Chandra Gupta, vice president of information technology at the tech centre, said in the statement.
• Two-thirds of new GCCs in India choose Bengaluru and Hyderabad, according to a Nasscom-Zinnov report from May.
