“We would like to be a $5 billion company in the next five years,” Nitesh Banga, President and CEO, Virtusa
In an interview with The Hindu Business Line, Nitesh Banga, President and CEO of Virtusa, shares his vision to transform the company into a $5 billion enterprise within the next five years. He details how Virtusa plans to achieve this through a sharp focus on digital engineering, industry-led solutions, and leveraging generative AI to solve complex enterprise problems.
Banga emphasizes the importance of becoming an industry-centric, solution-led organization, where Virtusa can bring deep domain expertise to large transformation programs. He highlights that while cost optimization will remain important for clients, growth agendas will be powered by business model reinvention and experience transformation, and this is where Virtusa aims to lead.
Central to the strategy is AI. Banga sees generative AI not just as a productivity tool but as a catalyst for fundamentally reimagining customer experience and decision-making. He also points to Virtusa's investments in proprietary accelerators, GenAI studios, and partnerships with major hyperscalers to drive real client impact.
He further stresses the need to strengthen global delivery and deepen talent capabilities, particularly in Eastern Europe and India, as part of a near-shoring and cost-efficiency strategy.
With a combination of scale, specialization, and a relentless focus on client outcomes, Virtusa is positioning itself as a next-generation services firm, ready to lead in an AI-powered, software-led future.
