Wipro, Microsoft forge three-year partnership to accelerate enterprise AI transformation

The strategic partnership will enable Wipro to accelerate AI integration across industries, deploy advanced Copilot tools, and strengthen workforce capabilities through focused Microsoft Cloud and GitHub training.

Wipro Limited has announced a major three-year partnership with Microsoft aimed at helping global enterprises transition into “Frontier Firms”—early AI adopters that are reshaping business operations and unlocking new growth opportunities. The collaboration combines Wipro’s consulting and engineering capabilities with Microsoft’s cloud and AI platforms, including Azure, Microsoft 365 Copilot, GitHub Copilot, and Azure AI Foundry.

The companies plan to build sector-focused AI solutions for industries such as financial services, retail, manufacturing, healthcare, life sciences and aviation. Wipro’s industry IPs—NetOxygen, Wealth AI and Falcon Supply Chain—will be integrated into these offerings to accelerate domain-specific innovation.

Large-scale Copilot rollout and skills push

As part of the alliance, Wipro is expanding AI adoption across its internal operations and client engagements through Wipro Intelligence™, its unified suite of AI-powered platforms and solutions. The company has deployed more than 50,000 Microsoft Copilot licenses and is upskilling over 25,000 employees in Microsoft Cloud and GitHub technologies to build an AI-fluent workforce capable of delivering next-generation solutions.

A key pillar of this transformation is Wipro’s newly launched Microsoft Innovation Hub at its Partner Labs in Bengaluru. The hub will support co-innovation, rapid prototyping and immersive workshops, and will showcase Wipro’s Agent Marketplace, featuring AI agents built on Microsoft’s platforms.

Driving scalable and responsible AI adoption

Wipro President for Technology Services Nagendra Bandaru said the partnership will strengthen the company’s ability to deliver value to clients at scale. “AI has emerged as the driving force behind every opportunity we win,” he noted, adding that Wipro Intelligence™ will help customers advance operational excellence and industry leadership.

Stephen Boyle, Vice President for Global System Integrators and Advisory Partners at Microsoft, said the partnership reflects a new era of AI-driven transformation. He highlighted the potential to co-create industry copilots and AI agents that are “open, extensible, and grounded in trust,” enabling businesses to achieve measurable outcomes across sectors.
