Patni computers

Patni Computers, once a leading name in the Indian IT services industry, was established in 1978 by Narendra Patni. Headquartered in Mumbai, India, Patni Computers played a pivotal role in shaping the early IT outsourcing landscape, providing softwar early IT outsourcing landscape, providing software development, consulting, and IT services to global clients. The company primarily catered to industries like insurance, healthcare, manufacturing, banking, and financial services, offering solutions that included application development, infrastructure management, and business process outsourcing. With a strong workforce of over 18,000 employees across more than 30 global offices, Patni Computers had a substantial presence in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region. Known for its innovative solutions and customer-centric approach, Patni earned a reputation as a reliable technology partner, delivering quality services and maintaining long-term relationships with its clients. In 2011, Patni Computers was acquired by iGATE Corporation in a deal valued at approximately $1.2 billion. This acquisition marked one of the most significant consolidations in the Indian IT industry, combining the strengths of both companies to enhance their global reach and service offerings. Eventually, in 2015, iGATE itself was acquired by Capgemini, leading to the integration of Patni's legacy within the larger Capgemini group. While the Patni brand no longer exists independently, its impact on the IT services industry remains significant, having paved the way for India's emergence as a global technology outsourcing leader. ...view more
