Dubai, UAE - February 21, 2011: 

Wipro, the global IT services major and a leading provider of IT and business transformation services announced today, the commencement of its eleventh year of operations in the Middle East. After a humble start a decade ago, the company today ranks among the leading IT services players, enjoying a commanding position in key markets of the region. 

Wipro began operations in UAE and Saudi Arabia in 2001 and today has a presence spread across Sharjah, Abu Dhabi, Kuwait, Qatar, Al Kobar, Riyadh, Jeddah and Bahrain. With over 1300 employees servicing the region and 100 plus customers, the company has emerged as a strategic IT partner to some of the biggest names in the region. The company has two near shore development centers in the region in Dubai and Egypt to service customers in the Middle East.  In Saudi Arabia, the largest market in the region, the company has a successful joint venture called Wipro Arabia Limited (WAL) between Wipro Ltd and Dal Al Riyadh for servicing clients in Saudi Arabia.  

Speaking on the occasion, Anand Sankaran, Senior Vice President and Business Head, India, Middle East and Africa, Wipro said, "Middle East has proved to be the growth engine for Wipro among emerging markets. In the last three years, our compounded annual growth rate in the Middle East has been close to 100 per cent in terms of revenues, and we expect the momentum to continue. We are also looking at expanding our presence further in the region, as we see fresh opportunities coming up in Kuwait and Qatar." 

The region is seeing investments in Infrastructure, Banking, Telecom and Oil and Gas. The government sector is also propelling growth with investments in education and healthcare.

Among Wipro's prestigious clients are King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) where the company has implemented a turnkey ERP-Student Life Cycle Management solution – first of its kind in the industry. For Saudi Arabian Airlines, the company is managing their entire IT infrastructure and applications, end to end.  Yet another prestigious engagement is with the Road Transport Authority (RTA), Dubai where Wipro is managing their IT environment including Data Center, networks, security and RTA's Customer Portal accessed by general public for all eServices.
