On the recognition, Member of the Board of the EOTF Study and General Partner, Work Universe, Radha Ahluwalia said, “The highlight, to my mind, of the Mphasis approach to future-readiness lies in the synergy between a ready acceptance of the constancy of change and a deep belief in their own, unchanging USPs that will enable them to ride change with success. They have taken clear future bets in key areas with conviction and thought, again reflective of the ability to anticipate the future and form a subsequent strategy.
