đ Why Location Matters
When expanding globally, choosing the right city for your offshore operations is one of the most strategic decisions you'll make. For companies looking to set up Global Capability Centers (GCCs) in India, Hyderabad continues to emerge as a top choice in 2025 â and not just for tech giants.
Whether you're a mid-sized company starting with just 5 FTEs or a fast-growing enterprise testing offshore delivery, Hyderabad offers the ideal blend of talent, cost efficiency, infrastructure, and stability.
