Wipro ADRs rose 5% in pre-market trade on Thursday after the IT services company expanded its partnership with Google Cloud to scale enterprise adoption of Gemini Enterprise and agentic AI. The company said it will deploy Gemini Enterprise internally and equip more than 10,000 AI-certified specialists, including 1,500 Forward Deployed Engineers, with advanced AI tools to improve productivity, operations and decision-making.Wipro said the expanded partnership is aimed at helping enterprises move from basic task automation to secure, autonomous AI agents embedded in core business workflows.As part of the partnership, Wipro has launched the LIFT framework, short for Launch-Ignite-Flywheel-Transform, to help companies accelerate AI transformation and deploy agentic AI at scale.The framework will combine Gemini Enterprise with Wipro’s AI-powered delivery platforms, WINGS and WEGA. Wipro said this will help clients use AI in multi-step business processes rather than only in simple automation tasks.Kanwar Singh, Managing Partner and Global Head of Technology Services at Wipro, said AI is becoming central to how the company is shaping its future, transforming operations and delivering value to clients.Wipro said it is also building a dedicated team of more than 1,500 certified Forward Deployed Engineers. These teams will combine Google Cloud’s AI expertise with Wipro’s consulting and engineering capabilities to move AI projects from pilot stage to full enterprise deployment.Kevin Ichhpurani, President, Global Partner Ecosystem at Google Cloud, said the partnership is aimed at helping customers bridge the gap between AI potential and business performance.Wipro said it has already deployed Gemini Enterprise as its central agentic orchestration platform under its “Operate Better with AI” strategy and “Client Zero” approach.The company said Gemini’s reasoning and long-context capabilities have helped it build autonomous AI agents across compliance, HR and sales intelligence. Wipro said this marks a shift from task automation to an enterprise-wide decision intelligence layer.Wipro has also integrated Antigravity Command Line Interface into its software engineering ecosystem. The company said this enables agentic workflows that help developers with planning, coding, testing and application modernisation.The company said the move has led to measurable improvements in development productivity and reductions in post-production defects.The announcement comes at a time when Indian IT services companies are trying to convince investors that generative AI can move from experimentation to billable enterprise work. Wipro has lagged larger peers in revenue growth in recent years, making large AI partnerships and platform-led delivery important for investor sentiment.(Disclaimer: Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.
