Managing Director, India, Naveen Ilager Recognized as Country Head of the Year
ATLANTA – August 10, 2026 – Scientific Games has received the Top GCC Award for Organizational Excellence for the second consecutive year at the GCC Workplace Awards 2026. The awards, presented recently in Bengaluru, India, recognize Global Capability Centers (GCCs) that are advancing the future of work through innovation, workplace culture and operational excellence.
Scientific Games also celebrated an individual achievement as Naveen Ilager, Managing Director, Scientific Games India, was named Country Head of the Year for his leadership in building a high-performing, future-ready GCC in Bangalore.
The company’s GCC in Bangalore employs nearly 500 professionals, including software developers, solution architects, cybersecurity specialists, quality engineers, game developers, artists, animators, game mathematicians, finance and procurement professionals, technical support teams and technology innovators who collaborate with colleagues worldwide.
Scientific Games has built one of the fastest-growing GCCs in India, supporting global operations across engineering, research and development, quality engineering, DevOps, TechOps, cybersecurity, enterprise applications and financial shared services. The center has evolved from an engineering-focused organization into a strategic hub that drives innovation, technology and operational excellence across the enterprise.

"Being recognized as Top GCC for Organizational Excellence highlights the team's commitment to excellence, collaboration and continuous improvement. We are proud of the impact Scientific Games India makes every day by leading through our values, supporting our customers and advancing our business priorities."
The recognition reflects Scientific Games’ long-term strategy of building capabilities while investing in its ~3,500 employees worldwide.
"I’m honored to receive these awards because they are truly a testament to the dedication of our employees in Bangalore and the trust placed in us by our global organization. Our focus has always been on building capabilities that create long-term value for Scientific Games while fostering an environment where people are empowered to take ownership, innovate and contribute meaningfully," said Ilager.
Continued investment in employee development, continuous learning and workplace culture has earned multiple workplace recognitions, including Great Place to Work® certification in 2023-24 and 2024-25, the Jombay WOW Workplace 2025 award, and consecutive Top GCC Organizational Excellence awards in 2025 and 2026.
