Your India capability centre, built by peoplewho've done it before
Vertara Global is a practitioner-led advisory and build partner for mid-market organizations establishing or scaling a Global Capability Centre in India — from a lean, 20–100 person Nano GCC through a full mid-scale build of up to 500 people. From the first business case to a fully operating team, one integrated partner, not a handoff between vendors.
Our Foundation
What we do
Vertara takes a Global Capability Centre from an open question to a running operation sized right for a mid-market mandate, from a 20–100 person Nano GCC through a full mid-scale build of up to 500 people. We build the business case, design the operating model and entity structure, stand up legal and HR foundations, and stay accountable through launch and the first years of scale.
A partner who owns the whole journey from business case to operating GCC.
Our Focus
Built for the mid-market, with a focus on Nano GCCs
A GCC for a mid-market company needs different judgment than one for a Fortune 500 different pace, different budget discipline, different cities. We work the full range a 20-person Nano GCC pilot at one end, a 400–500 person mid-scale capability hub at the other, and everything in between without forcing every mandate through the same enterprise playbook.

Leadership
Led by practitioners
Vertara was started by people who have built capability centres from the inside, at a Big 4 firm and at one of the world's largest mining companies. We've sat in the client's chair. We know what it's like to defend a business case to the board, hire the first leader, find the right office and keep a new team on track in year two. That's the experience we bring to every client.

The basics
A GCC is a captive (or captive-bound) offshore centre that the parent enterprise owns and operates — typically in India — to deliver engineering, product, AI/ML, finance, analytics, or shared services. Unlike a pure vendor relationship, the goal is lasting capability, IP control, and cultural alignment with the parent.
