At the recently concluded SPARK workshop for the CMT business unit, we discussed about how our strategies are focused to enable our clients to accelerate AI adoption, unlock new revenue streams and realize the business value faster. The workshop was alive with creativity and ambition, setting the stage for an unprecedented future, the one where we co-create AI-powered enterprises. #CognizantCMT #SPARKWorkshop #EnterpriseAI #AIBuilder
I have a great time collaborating with our team at the CMT AI SPARK workshop! It was inspiring to see everyone expand their networks, share ideas, and explore the opportunities ahead. We have repositioned ourselves as an Enterprise AI Leader, helping clients modernize technology and transform experiences, evolving ourselves into an AI Builder. In today's economic climate, we must help clients move swiftly from pilots to scaled implementations, focusing on outcome-based models. Over the two days, the connections made, and plans shared filled me with optimism for our journey ahead. I'm confident that we can establish our leadership position in AI, leveraging our investments in platforms, intellectual property, partnerships, and upskilling. Our AI strategy is anchored on three vectors: Vector 1: AI-led productivity Vector 2: Industrializing AI Vector 3: Agentifying the enterprise Together these three vectors create a powerful engine for value and scale. Our repeatable industry solutions and reimagine our offerings with outcome-based commercial models are resonating well with our clients. We appreciate the unprecedented support from our partners in this journey: Google Microsoft Amazon Web Services (AWS) ServiceNow Salesforce Anthropic Here are my key takeaways from the workshop: - The importance of setting ambitious goals and being creative with deal structuring. - Aim high on mega deals but take smaller wins as they come. - Consolidate competitors to grow deals and focus on GTM strategies. - Securing strong sponsorship is critical to driving alignment and delivering results at speed. Thank you again for your time, energy, and creativity at SPARK. I can’t wait to see what we accomplish together! #Cognizant #CognizantCMT #AIBuilder #AITransformation #AgenticAI Vijay Anand Anand Srinivasan Deepak Sharma Ankur Singh Drew Williams Barry Manno Jennifer Darnielle
