Infosys, a leading global technology services company, has announced the selection of five innovative business ideas from its employee base through an in-house entrepreneurship program. These ideas, which include software-centric mobility, services-as-a-software, and software-as-a-service, will receive funding, infrastructure, and mentorship to be incubated and offered to clients. The program aims to help Infosys and its clients address emerging market opportunities with scalable, tech-powered solutions.

The selected ideas are part of Infosys's ongoing efforts to foster innovation and drive growth. The company has been at the forefront of digital transformation and sustainability, as evidenced by its recent collaboration with Glion Arena Kobe in Japan [1]. This partnership leverages Infosys's expertise in digital transformation, cloud, AI, data analytics, and sustainability-focused technologies to enhance operational efficiency and reduce carbon footprint [2].

Infosys's financial performance underscores its commitment to innovation and sustainability. In FY2025, the company reported revenues of ₹1,62,990 crore ($19,277 million) and an operating margin of 21.1%, reflecting operational discipline and the ability to scale ESG-focused services without compromising profitability [3]. The company has also secured $3.8 billion in large deal wins in Q1 FY2026, with 55% being net new contracts, emphasizing its robust market positioning [4].

The incubation program aligns with Infosys's broader strategy to future-proof industries through ESG innovation. The company has maintained carbon neutrality for six consecutive years and aims to become climate positive by 2030, demonstrating its leadership in sustainable digital transformation [5]. This commitment is further reinforced by its 2030 ESG Vision, which includes a 90% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions and a 40% cut in Scope 3 emissions [6].

The five business ideas selected for incubation are expected to drive market growth and create value for both Infosys and its clients. By offering scalable, tech-powered solutions, Infosys aims to address emerging market opportunities and position itself at the forefront of digital transformation and sustainability.
