About Sanofi Global Capability Centre Hyderabad

"Sanofi, headquartered in Paris, France, is a global biopharmaceutical company with €49.3 billion in revenue (FY2025) and over 75,000 employees worldwide. The company established its Global Capability Centre in Hyderabad in 2019, initially as a Medical Hub, which has since grown exponentially into one of Sanofi's four strategic global hubs. The Hyderabad GCC supports global end-to-end processes across research and development, AI, digital health, intelligent automation, data analytics, medical affairs, finance, procurement and commercial operations.

The centre operates as an innovation hub deploying advanced AI and digital capabilities, with a technology stack spanning AWS, Azure, and GCP cloud platforms, Snowflake and Databricks for data, and TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Vertex AI for machine learning. Sanofi's Hyderabad GCC has grown from 400 employees in 2019 to 2,600 in 2024 and further expanded to 4,500 in 2026, making it one of the company's largest talent concentrations globally and among the top three pharma GCCs in India.

Sanofi continues to invest heavily in its India operations with a multi-hundred-million-dollar expansion adding 2.7 lakh sq ft of state-of-the-art workspace at Hitech City. The centre is designed as a hospitality-inspired, environmentally sustainable workplace fostering diversity and inclusion. With active hiring across AI, digital innovation, and data science roles, Sanofi's Hyderabad GCC represents a strategic bet on India's talent pool to drive the company's transformation into an AI-powered biopharma leader."
