This move strengthens our software-defined, platform-centric approach, and empowers us to deliver larger, more complex transformation programs across high-growth sectors including Hi-Tech, Consumer, Industrial, Healthcare, and Aerospace.”
Christian Sobottka, CEO of HARMAN, added, “This agreement unlocks the next chapter for the DTS business unit—one where it can scale faster, reach more clients in key industries, and fully realize its growth potential. As part of Wipro, a company with deep engineering prowess, DTS will have the complementary capabilities and ecosystem needed to expand its impact and accelerate the value it delivers to customers.”
