    PwC-FICCI: GCCs MUST DOUBLE TALENT SPEND

    PwC-FICCI report flags a critical gap: GCCs are underfunding AI skill development relative to demand.

    The math is stark. Current talent budgets won't close the AI capability shortfall across India's ~1,800 GCCs. Doubling spend isn't optional—it's the floor.

    Why this matters: GCCs competing for top AI talent will lose candidates to companies investing aggressively in upskilling. Your 2025 budget conversation just got harder.

    📌 Centers scaling fastest aren't waiting for perfect ROI on training—they're building talent moats now, before the market tightens further.

    What's your GCC's current L&D budget trajectory—flat, incremental, or aggressive?
