The tech market in 2026.
The tech market in 2026 is bifurcated. AI-native products are competing on a global stage from day one, while legacy SaaS products are defending margins against consolidation and AI replacement. The founders and CXOs we work with are navigating two questions simultaneously: how do we survive the AI transition, and how do we grow into markets we've never operated in?
In India, the B2B SaaS market is maturing. Buyers are more sophisticated, procurement cycles are longer, and the ICP research that worked in 2021 is stale. In the GCC, Vision 2030 is creating procurement budgets that didn't exist three years ago – but the path to vendor approval requires navigating local partnership requirements and government procurement protocols that most foreign tech companies don't understand.
We do. We've done 40+ tech mandates across these markets. The research is real. The relationships are deep.

What clients say
“
The 80-interview research programme was the most valuable thing we did before Series A. We walked into investor conversations knowing our ICP, our win reasons, and our product roadmap – all evidence-backed.
“
The buyer research GreyRadius conducted was better than anything our sales team had gathered in 18 months. We now know exactly which verticals to prioritise and how to position against incumbents.

Challenges we solve in Technology.
ICP validation outside your home market
Buyers in India, GCC, and Southeast Asia have different procurement triggers, decision-making structures, and risk tolerance than the market you built your product for. Assuming they behave the same way is the most common GTM failure.
Enterprise procurement in GCC
Local partner requirements, government procurement protocols, and multi-stakeholder approval cycles are non-negotiable realities. Most foreign tech companies underestimate the timeline by 6–9 months.
GTM execution from zero
No brand presence, no network, no pipeline in a new geography. The first 90 days of market entry determine whether you get traction or spend your runway on the wrong activities.
Fundraising in a reset market
Investor narratives that survive AI hype require primary market data, real buyer conversations, and unit economics grounded in your actual ICP – not projections built from top-down market reports.
AI product-market fit
The biggest risk in AI product strategy is building for buyer curiosity rather than buyer intent. We conduct 20–40 buyer interviews to distinguish genuine demand from interest in the concept.
Competitive positioning in evolving markets
You have competitors you haven't mapped and buyers you haven't interviewed. Market maps built from desk research are 12–18 months out of date in tech. Primary research is the only real-time signal.

Frequently asked questions
How are enterprises prioritising AI investments in 2026?
By provable operating outcomes rather than experimentation budgets - use cases with measurable cycle-time, cost or revenue impact get funded, pilots without production paths get cut. Vendor selection increasingly rewards deployment evidence over demos.
Why are global companies setting up capability centers in India?
India hosts 1,600+ global capability centers employing close to two million people, and the model has shifted from cost arbitrage to engineering, analytics and AI ownership. City choice, operating model and charter design decide whether a center becomes strategic or stays clerical.
What is driving data centre demand across India and the Gulf?
AI workloads, data localisation rules and cloud expansion - with power availability, not land, as the binding constraint. India's capacity is set to triple by 2030 while Gulf sovereign programmes fund multi-gigawatt AI campuses.
