Hyderabad: The IT/ITeS sector, especially global capability centres (GCCs), have emerged as a key drivers of Telangana's vision to become a $1 trillion economy, Telangana special chief secretary for IT, Sanjay Kumar, said on Friday.
"The govt continues its vision of driving towards a one trillion-dollar economy with IT/ITeS being the key driver, and we believe govts are not just regulators but co-creators of the future. We aim to transform Telangana from a premier IT hub into a global leader in emerging technology such as AI and Quantum through innovation and R&D engagement," Kumar said at the GCC X Summit organised by HYSEA and 3AI here.
Pointing to Hyderabad's growing stature as a GCC hub, Sameer Dhanrajani, CEO, 3AI, said the city is giving stiff competition to traditional IT hubs like Bengaluru and attracted 70 GCCs in FY25 alone.
He said this was also the reason why 3AI decided to bring the GCC X conclave, which is held every year in Bengaluru, to Hyderabad this year.
