MachineCon GCC Summit 2026

OUR ATTENDEES

Praveen Ojha
Chief Technologist, EPAM India

EPAM was proud to participate as a Gold Sponsor at the MachineCon GCC Summit 2026: India's premier invite-only, residential summit for the country's GCC ecosystem. The summit brought together hundreds of GCC leaders, CXOs and technology strategists at a defining moment for the industry. Built around the theme "Accelerating GCC Growth in India," the conversations cut through the hype and went into the harder territory of what it takes to move AI from pilots to production, why data platforms are the foundation and how governance and trust shift from blocking innovation to enabling it.

Praveen Ojha, Chief Technologist, EPAM India, took the keynote stage with a session on AI-first, responsible innovation for India's GCCs. Praveen shared how EPAM is helping 50+ GCCs accelerate their AI transformation journey — turning ambitions into credible, governed roadmaps that scale. He unpacked what truly holds enterprises back at this inflection point and what a responsible, AI-first path forward looks like.
