Wipro Teams Up with IISc for AI & Quantum Research

Wipro has partnered with the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) and the Foundation for Science Innovation and Development (FSID) to collaborate on cutting-edge research and innovation across frontier technologies. 

The organisations aim to accelerate breakthroughs in areas like agentic AI, embodied AI, quantum AI, and quantum safe solutions, to help enterprises

build more secure, adaptive, and autonomous digital operations.

Under the agreement, Wipro and IISc will establish a joint research program focused on quantum computing, advanced AI models, secure digital infrastructure, and new approaches to autonomous networks. 

The program will bring together senior faculty, researchers, and scientists

from IISc with Wipro’s engineers, architects, and technologists. 

This collaboration will enhance Wipro’s ability to deliver next-generation AI-powered capabilities across sectors such as telecom, manufacturing, financial services, and healthcare.

The company said that the alliance is amplified by the capabilities of the Wipro Innovation Network to drive co-innovation, accelerate enterprise transformation, and deliver scalable AI solutions.

Wipro chief technology officer Sandhya Arun said, “We aim [through the partnership] to address some of the most complex challenges and high impact opportunities that global enterprises face in an increasingly fast-evolving technology landscape.”

The partnership will help Wipro develop industry-ready platforms, scalable models, and new IP, which will be made available to clients on Wipro’s WINGS and WEGA delivery platforms, industry specific solutions and innovation offerings as part of Wipro Intelligence.

For IISc, the partnership supports an expanded research capacity, deeper industry validation, and opportunities for technology transfer and commercialisation.

IISc dean (division of electrical, electronics and computer sciences) Rajesh Sundaresan recalled the history of partnership between the two and said that the current partnership strengthens IISc’s ability to advance research in intelligent systems, digital infrastructure, and secure computing. 

Areas of work as part of the collaboration include autonomous network intelligence and next-generation agentic AI to help telecom and connectivity-driven sectors. 

Other areas include agentic and embodied AI for real-world and simulated environments, and advanced optimisation and secure computing models to strengthen enterprise resilience across financial services, energy, supply chain, and critical infrastructure sectors.
