“Infosys has shown impressive growth this year, making it the fastest-growing IT services brand of 2022, thanks to its commitment to clients and focus on innovation. While the COVID-19 pandemic spurred the necessity of a digital transition across the globe, Infosys stepped up to the challenge, resulting in its monumental 80% leap in brand value over the course of the past two years. Also looking into the future, Infosys is a brand to watch and one that can be expected to see continued brand value growth in the years to come,” said David Haigh, Chairman & CEO, Brand Finance.
The growth in Infosys’ brand value and brand strength articulated by Brand Finance is the outcome of the company’s concerted efforts to build a deeply client-relevant brand that also serves as a trusted engine of change. The company has continued to invest in new digital brands to realize this aspiration. The rise of Infosys Cobalt as an industry-leading cloud services brand, in just over a year, to help enterprises seamlessly and securely accelerate their journey to the cloud, is a good example of Infosys’ focus on nurturing market-relevant brands. Nurturing a well-differentiated employer brand marked with significant learning opportunities, growth trajectories and purposeful career paths for employees is a great part of Infosys’ focus.
