Initiated by 3AI, the second edition of GCC X…Summit 2024 was held on the 26th of June at The Leela Palace in Bengaluru, Karnataka. After the resounding success of the second edition of its flagship event, BEYOND 2024, the GCC X… SUMMIT 2024 brought in over 60 stellar speakers from GCCs alongside leading Data, AI, and Analytics leaders over a curated series of more than 40 differentiated sessions. With over 650 participants and 250 GCCs leaders, this event showcased the pioneering innovation and transformation best practices within GCCs with Gen AI. The summit’s highlights included the prestigious fifth edition of Pinnacle Awards 2024 and AI Makers50 in GCCs, honouring outstanding AI achievements.
The timing of the GCC X …was impeccable, coming as it did on the same day as the news of ANSR getting investment funding from Accenture, making it a game changing moment for GCCs. Essentially, GCCs are building an ecosystem of their own and also leaning on the external set of partner ecosystems. “This whole pursuit by Accenture is a manifestation of the commitment that the external ecosystem is making to catapult GCCs to the next level. More importantly, this will also aid the formation and conceptualisation of additional GCCs that are still on the fringe and no doubt will have a force propellant impact for the entire tech and info technology industry”, commented Sameer Dhanrajani – CEO, AIQRATE & 3AI
