Naureen Fatima

In my current role, I work as a Global Capability Center advisor, helping Fortune 500 companies and large enterprises set up technology centers, innovation hubs, and global capability centers in offshore locations like India, Mexico, Poland, and Greece. I assist with the design phase, setup, and running of these centers, including location strategy, operating models, governance frameworks, hiring, and ramp-up planning. I bring experience from working on 10 to 15 mega projects, spanning business case development, cost modeling, and talent strategy, understanding that what works in India from a hiring and retention standpoint might not work the same in Mexico due to various geographic nuances. Prior to this, I was part of the technology strategy team at Zenov, a consulting firm headquartered at Rockefeller Center in New York, where I advised hyperscalers like Google, Amazon AWS, and Microsoft on growth strategy, GTM strategy, partner ecosystem strategy, competitive benchmarking, and enterprise transformation roadmaps. Before that, I was a business development manager for Wipro Digital in India, where I worked on strategic advisory for the Indian government's 100 smart cities initiative, doing global benchmarking against cities like London and Barcelona and helping states and cities implement smart city solutions. I hold an MBA from the Indian Institute of Management, one of India's premier institutes with an admission rate as competitive as Stanford Business School, and I was a gold medalist from a top fashion school, receiving awards for best overall student and overall academic achievement. I bring a mix of technology and consulting expertise, and I'm very flexible and versatile in my career paths, adapting easily to new situations with an eagerness to learn.
