India is home to some of the most innovative companies in the world, and a workforce rapidly embracing a global, mobile mindset. Perhaps nowhere in the country is that more evident than in Bengaluru.

In this bustling southern capital city known as the Silicon Valley of India, a population that exceeds 12 million—and growing—provides a multicultural workforce for its thriving IT hub of technology startups, major global software companies and burgeoning R&D environment. And Indian companies have long been bullish on global mobility, even establishing numerous global mobility shared services centers.

But uncertainty over work visa rules, growing protectionism worldwide and a slowdown in technology spending are causing Indian companies to reevaluate their talent and mobility strategies. Understanding the skills needed for future mobility teams, and positioning to ensure compliance and risk management are critical in navigating this “perfect storm”.
