Insights
Wipro's strategic partnership with Aduna positions it favorably in the network API economy, expanding its service portfolio for telecom and enterprise clients.
The partnership between Wipro, Tech Mahindra, and Aduna represents a strategic positioning in the emerging network API economy. By joining Aduna's ecosystem, Wipro gains access to harmonized network APIs including SIM Swap, Number Verification, Device Location, and Quality on Demand capabilities that can be integrated into enterprise transformation initiatives.
This collaboration creates a two-sided opportunity for Wipro. On one side, they can help Communication Service Providers (CSPs) integrate with the Aduna platform, potentially accelerating these telecom clients' participation in new revenue streams. On the other side, Wipro can embed these network APIs into solutions for enterprise clients across financial services, manufacturing, logistics, and public sector industries.
The partnership enhances Wipro's value proposition by allowing them to extend their existing AI, cloud, and security offerings with real-time telecom intelligence. This positions Wipro as a bridge between telecom capabilities and enterprise systems, potentially strengthening their competitive position as digital transformation consultants.
For Wipro, this represents an opportunity to expand service offerings without developing proprietary network API solutions, instead leveraging Aduna's platform to deliver enhanced security, accelerated onboarding, improved communications, and compliance solutions to clients. The collaboration also involves developing industry-specific use case accelerators, which could create differentiated offerings in Wipro's portfolio.
As trusted advisors to Fortune 500 companies and long-time partners to telecom operators, Tech Mahindra and Wipro will integrate Aduna's harmonized network APIs, including SIM Swap, Number Verification, Device Location, and Quality on Demand into enterprise transformation initiatives across industries such as financial services, manufacturing, logistics, and public sector.
"This is a major step forward in operationalizing network APIs at scale," said Anthony Bartolo, CEO of Aduna. "Tech Mahindra and Wipro sit at the intersection of enterprise transformation and telecom innovation. Together, we're enabling both the supply and demand sides of the ecosystem to come online securely, scalably, and globally."
GSIs: The Bridge Between Telco and Enterprise
Global system integrators are uniquely positioned to connect telecom capabilities with enterprise systems. By embedding network APIs into digital workflows, they help enterprises enhance security, accelerate onboarding, improve communications, and meet compliance requirements without navigating telco complexity. They also play a critical role in helping mobile operators integrate with the Aduna platform by offering business consulting, service frameworks, and technical onboarding support.
As part of this collaboration, Tech Mahindra and Wipro will work alongside Aduna to:
- Support Communication Service Provider (CSP) onboarding and help accelerate operational readiness across multiple regions
- Co-develop and deploy use case accelerators for key industries such as banking, logistics, and public services
- Facilitate the global rollout of network APIs through their managed services and integration frameworks
- Help enterprises adopt network APIs by embedding them into cloud-native environments, security solutions, and digital identity platforms
