U.S.-based Workday to establish Global Capability Centre in Chennai: Industries Minister T.R.B. Rajaa
Minister for Industries T.R.B. Rajaa on Monday (April 28, 2025) said Guidance Tamil Nadu, the State government’s investment promotion agency, has signed a memorandum of understanding with United States-based Workday, which will establish a Global Capability Centre (GCC) in Chennai with an investment of around ₹220 crore, creating up to 3,000 jobs.
Workday is a world-renowned provider of enterprise cloud. Workday’s decision to set up their GCC in Chennai is yet another illustration of Tamil Nadu’s leadership as a global hub for digital innovation, Mr. Rajaa said in a post on X.
The company’s Chennai facility will be a strategic hub for product and technology development supporting Workday’s global operations, focusing on next-generation AI technologies, he added.
