Infosys, a major player in the IT industry, has encountered a setback with the loss of a $1.5 billion AI contract from a global customer. This development follows closely on the heels of the sudden resignation of Infosys’ former CFO, Nilanjan Roy, less than two weeks ago. These events contribute to a period of challenges and changes within the company, prompting attention from industry observers and stakeholders.
Infosys on December 23 announced that the undisclosed global company, which had previously signed a $1.5 billion deal focused on artificial intelligence solutions, has now decided to terminate the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the IT services giant.
This was intended to be a 15-year deal, inked in September 2023, signaling increasing uncertainty in the demand and technology
