Wipro acquires Olam’s Mindsprint in 8-year transformation deal
BENGALURU, INDIA — Wipro has completed its acquisition of Mindsprint, Olam Group’s IT and digital services arm, adding more than 3,200 employees and a portfolio of proprietary food and agri-business technology to its global delivery operations.
The deal pairs the acquisition with an eight-year strategic transformation engagement in which Wipro will continue serving Olam Group across supply chain, commodity trading, and farm-to-fork operations.
According to a company press release, Olam Group, a US$50 billion-plus food and agri-business headquartered in Singapore and majority owned by Temasek Holdings, is one of the world’s largest commodity trading and supply chain enterprises.
Mindsprint’s farm-to-fork IP anchors Wipro’s agri-tech push
Mindsprint brings five proprietary platforms — Farmsprint, Procuresprint, SprintAP, Salessprint, and Tradesprint — spanning the commodity cycle from farming to trading, supply chain, and customer engagement.
Mindsprint becomes a wholly owned subsidiary — branded “Mindsprint, a Wipro Company” — with its 3,200-plus employees across the United States, United Kingdom, Middle East, India, and Australia. Mindsprint’s five IP platforms give Wipro instant depth in food and agri-business technology — a vertical where few global IT services rivals hold comparable proprietary software positions.
“Mindsprint’s farm-to-fork expertise deepens our value chain capabilities, accelerates the global deployment of Wipro Intelligence, and enhances our ability to drive sustainable growth, operational leverage, and long-term business value,” said Vinay Firake, CEO of Wipro’s APMEA division.
Eight-Year Olam engagement shapes Wipro’s agri-business strategy
The eight-year engagement means Wipro inherits the Olam relationship as a long-term revenue contract covering supply chain operations, commodity trading, and farm-to-fork delivery programs globally.
Rothschild & Co. advised Wipro; Avendus Capital advised Olam Group and Mindsprint. The eight-year service commitment — covering Olam’s supply chain, trading, and farm-to-fork programs — gives Wipro a contracted revenue foundation for its agri-business vertical from day one of ownership.
“Becoming part of Wipro provides our teams with a global platform, greater scale, and access to deep consulting, engineering, and AI-powered capabilities,” said Suresh Sundararajan, CEO of Mindsprint.
Wipro’s acquisition of Mindsprint follows a broader shift among Indian IT majors toward domain-IP acquisitions — buying vertical-specific technology and talent to deepen differentiation in increasingly competitive enterprise IT markets.
The food and agri-business technology sector has attracted growing IT services investment as commodity trading firms and food producers accelerate supply chain digitization following pandemic-era disruptions.
For Wipro, Mindsprint’s IP provides an immediate vehicle to deploy Wipro Intelligence — its AI-powered enterprise platform — across commodity trading, agri-business, and food supply chain clients globally.
