The partnership will see select HCLTech employees in the UK embark on a 13-month ‘AI for Business Value’ program, with a focus on business benefits and ethical aspects of AI projects.

This initiative aligns with HCLTech’s goal of upskilling 50,000 employees in GenAI by 2025, improving productivity and enhancing client and employee satisfaction.

Upon completion of their training, employees will be better equipped to analyse their AI-integrated performance metrics, fostering a culture of insightful continuous improvement and maximising individual and team potential.

"This strategic initiative underscores HCLTech's commitment to harnessing AI responsibly to drive business outcomes. By partnering with Multiverse, we are not only equipping our workforce with advanced AI competencies but are also amplifying our capacity for innovation and excellence in service delivery," said Ashish Kumar Gupta, Chief Growth Officer, Europe and Africa, Diversified Industries, HCLTech. "Through this collaboration, we aim to position HCLTech at the forefront of ethical AI deployment, ensuring that our clients benefit from the transformative power of AI while upholding the highest standards of integrity and productivity."

"Capturing the potential gains from AI doesn’t just rely on technology and deploying the right models, it also requires individuals equipped with the right skills to apply it in the real world. HCLTech plays a pivotal role in the global tech arena and their clients depend on its cutting-edge capabilities. By empowering teams with advanced AI skills and instilling confidence, HCLTech and its clients are set to unlock the transformative potential of ethical, precise and productivity-enhancing AI," said Euan Blair, CEO at Multiverse.
