After the resounding success of the first edition of GCC X…Hyderabad Summit 2025; 3AI (India's largest platform and marketplace for GCCs & AI) and HYSEA (Hyderabad Software Enterprises Association) are partnering together again to announce the second annual edition of GCC X…HYDERABAD 2026 Summit: A premier GCC focused summit aimed at showcasing the New and Next in AI-Native Global Capability Centers with structured focus on strategic leadership outlook, new operating models, new age AI capabilities, platform engineering & intelligent solutions and ensuing value driven and transformative impact on parent enterprises.
GCC X…Hyderabad 2026 Summit will be an high-impact and eclectic confluence of GCCs apex leadership, including Managing Directors, Country Heads and Site Leaders, alongside Chief AI Officers, Data, AI & Analytics leaders along with technology and operations leaders — all converging on a single, powerful stage to ruminate the defining imperative of curating , scaling and leading an AI- Native GCC.
The GCC X…HYDERABAD 2026 stands as a pioneering, trendsetting platform, uniquely centred around India's vibrant and rapidly maturing GCC ecosystem.

The GCC X...HYDERABAD 2026 theme, "The Leadership Imperative for AI-Native GCCs," heralds a decisive shift. Having explored AI adoption and value realisation facets, GCC leaders now face a more fundamental challenge — reimagining organisational design, talent models, governance, and strategy for the enterprise wherein AI is not a tool but an intrinsic part of enterprise fabric.
The collaboration between 3AI and HYSEA in hosting GCC X…HYDERABAD 2026 represents a powerful convergence of premier GCC & AI driven thought leadership and Hyderabad's GCCs ecosystem coming together. Further, the summit aims to goes beyond the mainstream conversations around GCCs — driving forward the bold and differentiated agenda of AI-native GCCs and firmly establishing Hyderabad as the strategic nerve centre for global GCC leadership and technology innovation.
