Davos, Switzerland | January 2026
At the World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting 2026 in Davos, the Government of Maharashtra, India, and Supervity AI, a U.S.-headquartered enterprise AI software company, today signed a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to establish the world’s first Artificial Intelligence Global Capability Centre (AI GCC) Hub in Mumbai.
The AI GCC Hub will serve as a next-generation applied agentic AI R&D center and innovation lab, enabling global enterprises to transition from traditional offshore Global Capability Centers (GCCs) to AI-first operations centers powered by autonomous, policy-driven multi-agent AI systems. The initiative positions Maharashtra as a global pioneer in the evolution of enterprise operations - from labor-centric shared services to AI-native operational models.
The proposed Supervity AI GCC Hub will act as a launchpad for multinational enterprises to safely experiment, design, deploy, and scale multi agentic AI Employees across finance, procurement, compliance, supply chain, customer operations, and other core business functions.
Unlike conventional GCCs that rely heavily on human-intensive execution, the hub will focus on Supervity’s self-driving AI Employees, executing operations under human-defined policies and governance. This model enables higher productivity, operational resilience, and enterprise-grade auditability at scale across functions.
Under the MoU, Supervity AI will collaborate with the Government of Maharashtra to:
• Establish a dedicated Agentic AI R&D Center under AI GCC Hub in Mumbai’s central business district, Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC)
• Enable enterprises to safely experiment, deploy AI-driven operating models across front, middle, and back-office functions
• Support the development of AI-first operating frameworks aligned with global regulatory and compliance standards
• Foster a robust ecosystem of AI talent, solution partners, and enterprise adopters
As part of the broader collaboration, the Government of Maharashtra will support the initiative through talent enablement, institutional partnerships, and ecosystem development. The program envisions the structured training of up to 25,000 forward-deployed AI engineers over time, equipped with industry-specific capabilities to support AI-led enterprise operations.
In addition, four industry-focused AI GCC spoke centers are proposed to be established by Supervity across key nodes of Maharashtra. These centers will enable enterprises to leverage Tier-2 city talent and regional research capabilities while maintaining global operating standards. The distributed hub-and-spoke model is intended to support inclusive growth, deepen the state’s AI talent base, and strengthen Maharashtra’s position as a scalable AI capability destination.
In parallel, the state will explore opportunities to progressively adopt AI-led operating models across 48 government departments, contributing to the creation of a world-class AI GCC framework for the State of Maharashtra, supported by innovative technology partners such as Supervity AI.
By anchoring the AI GCC Hub in Mumbai, the initiative reinforces Maharashtra’s ambition to emerge as a global hub for advanced digital and AI-led enterprise operations. The hub is expected to attract multinational corporations seeking to modernize operations while leveraging India’s deep technology expertise and innovation ecosystem.
“As global enterprises rethink the future of their operating models, AI-first capability centers will play a defining role. This collaboration reflects Maharashtra’s intent to support that transition while strengthening the state’s position as a global talent and technology destination for next-generation AI-led enterprise operations and services.”
Supervity AI brings to the partnership its proprietary Self-Driving Operations platform and Forward-Deployed Engineers Academy, designed to onboard secure and enterprise-grade AI Employees capable of executing work autonomously within clearly defined policies, controls, and human oversight.
“Enterprise operations are undergoing a structural shift. Traditional GBS and GCC models were designed for scale through human effort, whereas the next decade demands scale through AI execution with strong governance. This partnership with the Government of Maharashtra establishes a global reference point for AI-first operations, starting from Mumbai.”
The AI GCC Hub is envisioned as a replicable global blueprint for responsible, enterprise-grade AI adoption. The collaboration aims to demonstrate measurable improvements in operational efficiency, compliance, and time-to-value, while maintaining human accountability and policy control.
The MoU signed at WEF Davos 2026 reflects a shared commitment by the Government of Maharashtra and Supervity AI to shape the future of enterprise operations - positioning Maharashtra, at the forefront of the global AI-led business transformation technology.
