“Digital disruption, automation and specialization are increasingly transforming our customer businesses,” said Jagdish Mitra, Chief Strategy and Marketing Officer, Tech Mahindra. “We are pleased this new strategic partnership will help us drive thought leadership on these important trends driving the future of business, as well as getting analysts, consumers and advisors to share their thoughts and give us a ringside view of the future.”
