Cognizant has introduced Cognizant Activate, a business unit focused on helping emerging enterprises leverage AI to accelerate transformation.
The unit combines Cognizant’s AI Builder capability with an operating model tailored to the unique pace, priorities, and decision-making of these organisations.
“Emerging enterprises with high growth want enterprise-grade capability without enterprise-level complexity and cost,” said Mohammad Haque, global head of Intelligent Enterprise Platforms and Large Deals at Cognizant. “Cognizant Activate gives them access to our global delivery network, platform certifications and decades of industry expertise, delivered through a model built specifically for their speed and ambition.”

Cognizant Activate will provide platform-aligned, pre-configured solution kits across data and AI, cybersecurity, enterprise applications, cloud modernisation, and managed services. A single engagement lead will manage each client relationship from initial consultation through delivery, supported by vertically integrated teams.
Cognizant Activate will initially target financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, and retail/CPG sectors, leveraging Cognizant’s industry expertise and relationships with emerging enterprises. The unit will also utilise Cognizant’s ecosystem partnerships to help clients realise value faster.
“The companies shaping tomorrow’s economy are moving fast and thinking boldly, and they need a partner who will treat their transformation as consequential, not incremental,” said Ravi Kumar S, Cognizant’s chief executive officer. “Cognizant Activate brings the same AI Builder capability that is helping to transform some of the world’s largest enterprises to emerging enterprises, right-sized for their speed and scale. This is how our clients activate growth with AI.”
