Cognizant Deploys 25,000 Staff to Scale OpenAI Solutions for Enterprise Clients
Cognizant launches a dedicated global unit of over 25,000 professionals focused on deploying OpenAI technology for enterprise customers.

The move signals a significant corporate bet on advanced artificial intelligence moving from pilot projects into full production environments.
The initiative reflects a broader shift in the enterprise technology landscape, where large corporations are no longer simply testing generative AI tools but actively integrating them into core business operations. Cognizant's decision to marshal a workforce the size of a mid-sized city for this purpose underscores the scale of investment now flowing into commercial AI deployment.
