Wipro expects the acquisition to enhance its AI-powered digital engineering and device engineering capabilities across various sectors, including technology, industrial, aerospace, healthcare, and consumer industries. The combination of DTS' personalized, high-touch service model with Wipro's global scale, advanced technology ecosystem, and expansive resources will allow clients to benefit from the agility and precision of a specialist provider and the reach and capabilities of a global leader [1].
Wipro's CEO and Managing Director, Srini Pallia, stated, "Welcoming DTS into the Wipro family marks a pivotal step in our transformation journey. Their specialized engineering expertise, combined with Wipro’s consulting-led, AI-powered capabilities, will significantly enhance the value we deliver to clients. DTS’ strong presence in high-growth sectors and strategic markets complements our global footprint and strengthens our position as a trusted transformation partner. Together, we’ll accelerate digital innovation, reduce time-to-market, and sharpen competitive advantage." [1]
