One of the toughest challenges that founders of growing start-ups face is how-to and when-to scale up. Growth diverts core R&D team's focus from product development to bug-fixing and testing and support team's focus from pre sales to post sales. In today's globalized world, start-ups worry about scaling up globally even in the initial stages. Scaling is expensive, making it difficult to control the burn rate. A global center is a smart way to scale up. With access to global talent, it takes advantage of economies of scale, location, scope, and utilization. It can be the source of new revenue streams, providing global-level services. It is critical to have leadership with global experience, deep local know-how, and start-up DNA.
