Titans of Tech: The Firms & Leaders Shaping the Tech Consulting Industry

As the technology landscape rapidly evolves, organizations that fail to innovate risk falling behind. That’s where leaders in technology consulting step in. In a world of constant change, consultants aren’t just keeping pace—they’re at the forefront, pioneering solutions that influence industries and empowering businesses to unlock their full potential. In this Titans of Tech series, we spotlight the visionary firms and leaders who aren’t just adapting to technology’s future, but actively defining it. 

Edition Three: Meet Virtusa

In our third edition, we turn the spotlight on Virtusa, a global technology consulting firm helping businesses navigate the ever-evolving digital landscape. With over 27,000 employees spanning more than 25 countries, Virtusa delivers digital engineering and technology solutions to Forbes Global 2000 companies around the world. Rooted in an Engineering First approach, the firm combines deep industry expertise with agile teams to deliver transformative solutions that drive businesses forward. 

What Makes Virtusa a Titan of Tech?

Virtusa blends deep expertise in digital engineering with the ability to execute and implement transformative solutions at scale. Unlike firms that focus solely on high-level strategy, Virtusa takes a hands-on approach, embedding AI, machine learning, and cloud-native architectures directly into business ecosystems. This Engineering First mindset ensures that innovation isn't just imagined—it’s built, deployed, and optimized to drive measurable impact.

Across industries—including banking, healthcare, telecommunications, and high tech—Virtusa’s proprietary frameworks enable organizations to seamlessly integrate new digital capabilities without disrupting operations, bridging legacy systems with next-gen technology. At the core of their next-generation transformation capabilities is Virtusa Helio, the firm’s AI-first suite of generative AI solutions. As businesses seek to leverage AI for automation, predictive insights, and operational efficiency, Virtusa helps engineer, implement, and scale AI solutions. Additionally, the firm’s Generative AI Center of Excellence, comprised of engineers trained in generative AI use cases and real-world deployments, helps ensure their clients' success. 

Virtusa’s expertise in generative AI is already delivering real-world impact, as seen in its work with a leading American convenience store chain. The company struggled with a slow, error-prone process for verifying food labels, requiring manual checks for over 200 items daily at each store. Virtusa developed and implemented a genAI-powered label verification solution using AWS services to automate the extraction and validation of key product attributes. This dramatically improved accuracy, achieving a 95% match rate for non-complex labels, reducing errors and the need for manual intervention. By optimizing processing time and reallocating labor to higher-value tasks, Virtusa’s solution streamlined operations and improved efficiency at scale.

Virtusa’s position as a Titan of Tech is reinforced by its team of top-tier talent, including three experts recognized on The Consulting Report’s Top 25 Technology Consultants and Leaders of 2025. This prestigious recognition highlights leaders at the forefront of AI, cybersecurity, digital transformation, and technology industry expertise—those informing the way organizations tackle complex technological challenges, strengthen security, and drive business growth.
