GlobalLogic Projects 25% APAC Expansion Next Year, Driven by AI Initiatives.

GlobalLogic, a Hitachi company, is experiencing robust growth in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, with India contributing 90% of its revenue in the market. The company expects to close the fiscal year with 20% growth in APAC and is targeting a 25% expansion next year, fueled by AI-driven initiatives and workforce additions.

“We intend to grow by 25% in APAC next year, with 15% coming from headcount expansion and the remainder from AI-led initiatives,” said Piyush Jha, Managing Director & Head of India and APAC at GlobalLogic. The company has invested $40 million in GenAI and VelocityAI to strengthen its AI capabilities.

VelocityAI, GlobalLogic’s AI-powered suite, enhances automated testing, streamlines DevOps, reduces maintenance efforts, and helps enterprises cut operational costs by up to 20%. Jha highlighted that GenAI has significantly improved margins, transitioning from an experimental technology to mainstream production.

“VelocityAI represents a paradigm shift in how enterprises leverage AI for business transformation,” Jha noted, emphasizing its ability to offer customizable AI models while ensuring security compliance and IP protection. The platform is also enhancing workforce productivity by 30% across GlobalLogic’s 33,000 employees.

The company is also strengthening its collaboration with Global Capability Centers (GCCs) on GenAI adoption. Over the past two years, GlobalLogic’s GCC business has grown by 110%, and the firm anticipates a 50% year-on-year growth rate going forward.

“The optimization driven by VelocityAI will further accelerate growth, as GCCs require faster time-to-market and efficiency to align with their parent companies,” Jha added.

With AI at the core of its strategy, GlobalLogic aims to solidify its position as a leader in the APAC digital transformation space.
