The theme of this year’s nasscom Strategic Review report is “Steering through the tides of uncertainty: charting opportunities amid disruption” which focuses on the Indian tech industry’s shift from scale-led growth to value and innovation and is reinforcing the country’s global role. This shift is driven by GCC expansion, BFSI demand and rising relevance of newer verticals, while mid-tier firms outpace top-tier peers with sharper niche positioning. Notably, what sets the industry apart this year are not the headline numbers, but the choices that the industry continues to make for long-term relevance and future proofing itself, as it moves from resilience to renewal and matures towards strategic influence.
