Microsoft ties up with 4 IT firms to boost agentic AI

IT MAJORS TO REDESIGN WORKFLOWS AROUND HUMAN-AGENT COLLABORATION

- FE BUREAU

MICROSOFT IS DEEPENING its enterprise AI push in India through partnerships with the country’s largest IT services firms, aiming to accelerate deployment of agentic artificial intelligence at scale.

Cognizant, Infosys, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Wipro will each roll out more than 50,000 Microsoft Copilot licences, taking the combined total past 200,000.

Copilot, Microsoft’s conversational Al assistant embedded across products including Office and GitHub, is central to what could become one of India’s biggest enterprise deployments of agentic Al—systems designed not just to respond to prompts but to act autonomously and execute multi-step tasks without human input.
