NEW DELHI– Infosys on Tuesday announced a strategic partnership with U.S.-based artificial intelligence company Anthropic to develop and deploy advanced enterprise AI solutions across sectors including telecommunications, financial services, manufacturing, and software development.
Under the collaboration, Infosys will integrate its AI platform, Infosys Topaz, with Anthropic’s Claude family of models, including Claude Code, to automate complex workflows, accelerate software delivery, and build agentic AI systems for enterprise use.
The initial phase of the partnership will focus on the telecommunications sector, where the two companies will establish a dedicated Anthropic Center of Excellence to develop and deploy AI agents tailored to industry-specific operations. The collaboration is expected to expand subsequently into financial services, manufacturing, and software development.
In financial services, the AI agents will be used for risk detection, automated compliance reporting, and personalized customer interactions. In manufacturing and engineering, Claude-powered solutions will support faster product design and simulation, helping reduce research and development timelines and enabling engineers to test more iterations prior to production.
Within software development, teams will use Claude Code to write, test, and debug software, enabling faster movement from design through deployment.
Infosys said the partnership is designed to help clients reimagine enterprise operating models by combining deep industry expertise, frontier AI capabilities, and large-scale engineering into a unified approach.
A central focus of the collaboration will be agentic AI — systems capable of independently executing multi-step tasks such as processing insurance claims, generating and testing code, or managing compliance reviews. Using tools such as the Claude Agent SDK, the companies aim to help enterprises deploy AI agents that can operate persistently across long and complex workflows rather than single, isolated interactions.
“There’s a big gap between an AI model that works in a demo and one that works in a regulated industry — and closing that gap requires deep domain expertise,” said Dario Amodei, chief executive officer and co-founder of Anthropic. “Infosys has exactly that kind of expertise across critical sectors such as telecom, financial services, and manufacturing.”
Infosys Chief Executive Officer Salil Parekh said the collaboration is aimed at accelerating AI value creation for global enterprises, from modernizing financial services through intelligent risk and compliance systems to enabling AI-driven design and manufacturing in engineering-led businesses.
The announcement comes as the India AI Impact Summit entered its second day on Tuesday, bringing together global policymakers, industry leaders, researchers, and innovators to discuss the future direction of artificial intelligence. (Source: IANS)
