Wipro, an AI‑powered technology services and consulting company, has announced the launch of a dedicated AI-Native Business & Platforms Unit to complement its services business.

With targeted investments and a distinct operating model, the unit will accelerate the development of enterprise‑grade agentic AI solutions and enhance outcome‑based value creation. It will also incubate new AI‑led business streams through an invest-build-partner approach, working in close collaboration with Wipro Ventures and its broader partner ecosystem.

The business unit will bring together a rich portfolio of platforms and AI-native businesses. It will own and scale Wipro Intelligence’s platform assets, including industry platforms such as NetOxygen (AI‑powered lending), CROAMIS (integrated aviation cargo operations), IHS and HPS (healthcare platforms), Enterprise Telco AI, and delivery platforms such as WINGS and WEGA. Supported by dedicated forward-deployed engineering teams, it will help clients unlock value faster, strengthen Wipro’s integrated platforms and services offerings, and enable more scalable, non-linear growth.

“This strategic pivot further sharpens Wipro Intelligence’s ability to deliver tangible value to clients and drive stronger business outcomes,” said Srini Pallia, CEO and MD, Wipro. “It positions us to build and scale AI-led platforms at an unprecedented speed and unlock new growth opportunities. By deepening our capabilities across data, workflows, decision engines and infrastructure, we are well-positioned to lead in the era of intelligent transformation.”

Nagendra Bandaru, President and Managing Partner of Technology Services GBL, who has been with Wipro for nearly three decades, has been appointed as the CEO of the new business unit, effective immediately. He will continue to report to the CEO and MD Srini Pallia.

Kanwar Singh joins Wipro as the new President and Managing Partner of Technology Services GBL. Kanwar will report to the CEO and MD Srini Pallia and join the Wipro Executive Leadership. He has led complex, global initiatives spanning industries such as retail, consumer packaged goods, manufacturing and travel & transportation.

These changes are effective from April 1st, 2026.
