The announcements underline a broader shift-from AI experimentation to enterprise-grade deployment, across industries and geographies.
HCLTech deepens enterprise AI play with insurer deal and GCC expansion
HCLTech strengthened its enterprise AI narrative on two fronts this week. The IT services major secured a multi-year IT transformation deal with a US-based insurer, focused on modernising core systems, cloud platforms, and embedding AI across operations to drive efficiency and improved customer experience. In parallel, HCLTech, alongside Western Union, announced the expansion of their AI-led Global Capability Centre in Hyderabad, which will focus on platform engineering, data analytics, automation, and advanced AI use cases for Western Union's global operations. Together, the moves highlight how HCLTech is pairing large transformation contracts with deeper, innovation-led delivery models anchored in India.

Infosys also made two AI-focused announcements that underscore its breadth of enterprise ambitions.

At the same time, Infosys expanded its enterprise AI presence in Europe by strengthening its Swiss headquarters in Zurich to support clients' AI-led transformation journeys, particularly in regulated industries. The dual announcements reflect Infosys' strategy of using high-visibility platforms as AI showcases while quietly building global hubs to support enterprise-scale deployments.
