As part of this partnership, Wipro has launched the LIFT (Launch-Ignite-Flywheel-Transform) framework to help enterprises accelerate AI transformation and operationalise agentic AI at scale.

Powered by Wipro Intelligence™, the unified suite of AI platforms, solutions, and transformative offerings, the LIFT framework integrates Gemini Enterprise with Wipro’s AI-powered delivery platforms, WINGS and WEGA. Wipro explained that this unified ecosystem enables organisations to seamlessly transition from basic task automation to embedding secure, autonomous AI agents directly into their core, multi-step business workflows.

Additionally, Wipro is scaling the internal deployment of Gemini Enterprise and will empower over 10,000 AI-certified specialists, including 1,500 Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs), with advanced AI capabilities to enhance productivity, streamline operations, and accelerate decision-making.

“By strengthening Wipro Intelligence™ with Gemini Enterprise, we are embedding intelligence into everyday core operations, helping clients scale outcomes, adapt faster, and compete more effectively in a dynamic environment,” said Kanwar Singh, Managing Partner and Global Head of Technology Services, Wipro.

Further, to accelerate value creation, Wipro is also building a dedicated team of more than 1,500 certified FDEs, combining Google Cloud’s expertise with Wipro’s consulting and engineering capabilities to seamlessly scale AI adoption from pilot to enterprise-wide deployment.

Drawing on its AI transformation experience through the ‘Operate Better with AI’ strategy and ‘Client Zero’ approach, Wipro has deployed Gemini Enterprise as its central agentic orchestration platform.

How Gemini has helped so far

Gemini’s advanced reasoning and long-context capabilities have enabled Wipro to build autonomous AI agents that streamline critical workflows across compliance, HR, and sales intelligence, transforming AI from basic task automation into an enterprise-wide decision intelligence layer.

“Our partnership with Wipro continues to drive real-world value for enterprise customers looking to scale AI across their organizations. The strong demand for Gemini Enterprise indicates the value it is adding for customers today,” said Kevin Ichhpurani, President, Global Partner Ecosystem, Google Cloud.

Wipro has also integrated Antigravity Command Line Interface into its software engineering ecosystem, enabling agentic workflows that assist developers with planning, coding, testing, and application modernisation.

The IT major said that this transition has delivered highly quantifiable outcomes for development lifecycles, including productivity improvements for custom application development and significant reductions in post-production defects.

“By embedding Gemini Enterprise into their own operations and their customer-facing platforms, Wipro is demonstrating how AI transformation drives tangible efficiency. Together, we are helping joint customers bridge the gap between AI potential and business performance using Google Cloud’s agentic AI capabilities,” added Ichhpurani.

At 10:36 AM, Wipro shares trading at ₹180.52 apiece on the National Stock Exchange, gaining 2.34%. From the beginning of the year, the stock has slipped 34%, while for the six-month period, it has dropped 12%.

According to NSE data, as of August 26, 2026, Wipro has a total market capitalisation of ₹1.75 lakh crore.
