Kapil Dev Inaugurates Arche’s Global State-of-the-Art Innovation and Delivery Centre

Arche, the global enterprise transformation firm, today announced the inauguration of its state-of-the-art AI-first innovation and delivery centre in Bangalore, marked by a strategic collaboration with cricketing legend Kapil Dev. The partnership brings together India's 1983 World Cup-winning captain with Arche's mission to drive large-scale digital reinvention across global enterprises.

The engagement commenced with an exclusive leadership dinner for Arche's executive team and global clients, followed by the formal launch of the innovation hub. Kapil Dev's participation offered unique insights into high-stakes leadership, team building under pressure, and sustaining transformation through uncertainty, principles that directly address the challenges facing enterprises in today's AI-driven landscape.

"Technology will always evolve, but belief, discipline, and trust; that's what sustains a team. Whether on a cricket field or in a boardroom, those principles don't change," said Kapil Dev during his address to the audience.

The collaboration draws deliberate parallels between the 1983 Cricket World Cup victory, where an unfavoured team defeated the world's best through mindset and unity, and the digital transformation challenges enterprises face today when confronting legacy systems, cultural inertia, and rapid innovation cycles.

"Kapil's story isn't just about sport. It's about belief, resilience, and creating a winning culture, traits every enterprise needs today, especially in this AI-first world where uncertainty is the norm," said Maha, Managing Director of Arche.

Bobby, Managing Director and CEO of Arche, added: "AI, automation, and data can scale execution, but vision, belief, and culture are what scale leadership. This collaboration helped remind all of us that transformation is first and foremost a human journey."

The newly launched Bangalore facility will focus on AI-first enterprise transformation, delivering innovation programs for Fortune 500 clients across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific regions. Arche's global model combines strategic consulting, digital platforms, and organizational change management.

This engagement reflects Arche's foundational belief that sustainable transformation requires the right mindset and leadership principles guiding technological advancement. Rather than promotional in nature, the collaboration serves as a thought leadership platform, distilling actionable insights from one of India's most significant transformation stories.

With the launch of its Bangalore hub, Arche signals its commitment to India's talent ecosystem, global customer partnerships, and building future-ready enterprises rooted in proven leadership values.
