Wipro appoints Malay Joshi as CEO for ‘Americas 1’ strategic market unit

IT major Wipro has appointed Malay Joshi as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of its ‘Americas 1’ Strategic Market Unit (SMU), effective immediately. Joshi succeeds Srini Pallia, who was appointed Wipro’s CEO and Managing Director (MD) on April 6, following Thierry Delaporte’s resignation.

During Delaporte’s tenure, Wipro had created a new operating model with four SMUs namely Americas 1, Americas 2, Europe, and Asia Pacific Middle East Africa (APMEA). While Americas 1 and Americas 2 are organised by sectors, Europe and APMEA are structured by countries.
