Global management and technology consultancy Capco, a Wipro company, has been recognized by OpenAI for both AI innovation and responsible AI leadership. Capco received the AI Governance & Risk Excellence Award at the recent OpenAI Partner Summit 2026 in San Francisco, highlighting Capco’s ability to deliver enterprise-grade AI outcomes in highly regulated environments. The award recognizes Capco’s expert advantage when helping financial services and energy organizations to scale AI with confidence, balancing innovation with strong governance to reduce risk, strengthen compliance and improve customer outcomes.
This award follows Capco winning the OpenAI Codex Hackathon, where its UK AI Lab competed against more than 30 teams and over 100 participants from across the OpenAI partner ecosystem. Capco’s winning entry Sentra – a consulting-led, AI-powered retail banking solution – uses digital twin technology to identify vulnerable customers and recommend explainable next-best actions for frontline teams.
Srini Pallia, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Wipro Limited, said “Capco is uniquely positioned to help clients unlock the full value of AI through a consulting-led, AI-powered approach built on deep domain expertise, trust and customer focus. OpenAI’s recognition is a strong validation of the responsible and scalable AI solutions we are building for clients and our own business. These honours mark another important step in accelerating our AI strategy with Wipro Intelligence™ and reinforce Capco’s expert advantage in delivering AI-enabled advisory and scalable solutions that create lasting value.”
Capco was an early OpenAI strategic partner, participating in its beta partner programme since 2025 and working closely with OpenAI on emerging enterprise capabilities. Together, these recognitions reinforce Capco’s growing position within the OpenAI partner ecosystem. They demonstrate Capco’s ability to innovate at the frontier of AI technology, while having the requisite expertise to deploy AI responsibly in complex regulatory environments.
