This seventh edition of Analytics India Magazine (AIM), held at the opulent Alila Diwa in Goa, brings together more than 500 GCC leaders, industry pioneers, and visionaries to examine how India is evolving from a “delivery hub” to a “global co-leader” in innovation and generative AI.

The summit stands out for its residential arrangement, which encourages in-depth discussions about long-term enterprise transformation away from the conventional “war-room” corporate setting.

The Following is the purpose of this event:

  1. GCC Strategy & Growth: Creating workable plans for integrating AI, automation, and platform thinking to enable centers to grow while preserving global quality and agility.

  3. Talent & Future of Work: Resolving the “Talent Equation”: How to draw in, retrain, and keep top-tier AI and engineering talent at scale within the Indian ecosystem.
