You owe it to your customers, your colleagues, your investors, and the society. Every major civilization, every great advance in science and technology, and every great company is built on a big dream.” N. R. Narayana Murthy Chairman and Chief Mentor 30 years of Infosys Turning thirty is a good time to reminisce. And reflect. And look ahead. Thirty is one of those rare junctures when you have both youth and experience on your side. Thus, as Infosys completes thirty, we talk about the pleasures and pains of starting small; the genesis of a value-based organization culture; personal goals turning into company milestones; sharing wealth and caring for society; learning and educating; building infrastructure for one and all; agreeing to disclose and refusing to compromise on quality; and above all, believing in a vision and leading by example to see it become reality. Thirty is also the time to break new ground.

The abundance of talent within the organization and our employees’ single-minded determination to be the best ensure that we are ahead of our competition. This has, over the years, earned us the trust and confidence of our stakeholders. The Infosys Awards for Excellence seeks to reward those employees who have remained true to our core values. They were initiated in 1995 as the “Managerial Excellence Awards”. Over the years the awards have grown to exemplify much of what it means to be an Infoscion.

  • Infosys Annual Report 2015-16
    BEING INFOSYS. BEING MORE. ANNUAL REPORT 2015-16 BEING INFOSYS. BEING MORE. We inhabit a universe where time and space bend and stretch continuously. For us, the year in which we celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Theory of General Relativity itself appeared to warp, and passed by much too quickly. It was a year during which we focused on our strategy execution, and we saw four quarters of healthy growth. Beyond the financial results, we saw unprecedented achievements by our teams in every aspect of the business. It was a year in which everyone brought home the vision of Renew and New built on a solid foundation of innovation, learning and purpose. In this environment, it is easy to focus on the big picture, and miss seeing the multi-dimensional manner in which true transformation takes hold. In order to return to market leadership in a sustained manner, we need to re-imagine our business in every facet and every detail. From delivery, to sales, consulting, operations, and each and every business enabling function – from people, to processes, infrastructure and systems – we have to bring about change that addresses the new reality of a pervasively digital and inter-connected world. This issue of our annual report celebrates the multiple facets of our transformation. The theme is about transcendence from the ordinary. It is about how innovation and continuous improvement have permeated every corner of our business, and about how we are honing excellence to a fine art form. At Infosys, it is no longer adequate to simply meet expectations – we have to exceed it every time, and in every way.

  • Funding Education with Impact a Guide for Social Investment in India
    FUNDING EDUCATION WITH IMPACT A GUIDE FOR SOCIAL INVESTMENT IN INDIA Delivering High Impact. 1 FUNDING EDUCATION WITH IMPACT ”... it is clear that education will play a critical dual role of addressing poverty and inequality while supporting the transition to a new model of sustainable development. For this to occur, all stakeholders, from civil society and non- government organizations ... to multilateral organizations, bilateral aid agencies and all levels of government, will need to make concerted efforts to reorient systems of education, skills development, and research and innovation.” - UNESCO 2 ABOUT THE REPORT Building on the discussions initiated at the AVPN Conference in Bangkok in June 2017, this report is a deep dive into the social investment landscape in education in India. It has been designed as a guide for potential and existing social investors who would like to maximise impact in the education sector. It analyses gaps, desired outcomes and existing interventions by various social purpose organisations across the education segments - early childhood, primary, secondary, vocational and inclusive education. An overview of the current funding landscape, along with notable funding examples across the spectrum of funders, is also provided. Finally, the guide discusses ecosystem initiatives to identify potential synergies for funders. We hope this report serves as a comprehensive and practical guide for education funders to inform strategy and facilitate decision- making. Published by the Asian Venture Philanthropy Network

  • Infosys – Technology at Work
    Infosys – Technology at work The future depends on what we do in the present. Mahatma Gandhi (1869 – 1948) History is replete with instances of technological breakthroughs that have forever altered the course of humanity. The digital revolution has brought about unprecedented improvements in the price-performance equation for both information storage and processing power. The explosion of the Internet has revolutionized information availability and exchange, and has also spurred extraordinary innovations in business processes and commerce. Today, physical boundaries are becoming increasingly irrelevant and information technology is a boardroom imperative in corporations across the globe. Enhanced communication capabilities, ubiquitous information access, and real-time decision-making have contributed immensely to the rise of organizations that transcend national boundaries. We, at Infosys, believe that technological developments in the areas of enterprise solutions, embedded software, optical networking and convergence will continue to radically impact every one of us. These developments will spur new ways of doing business, help companies increase their focus on consumer needs, and facilitate innovations in the form of hi-tech products and services. This year, we bring you a collection of some of our projects that showcase the impact of leading-edge technologies on business. 1 Contents The year at a glance 3 Awards for excellence – 2000-2001 4 Letter to the shareholders 9 Infosys – Technology at work 11 Directors’ report 21 Risk management

  • Corporate Social Responsibility in India Pramod R
    International Conference on Technology and Business Management March 23-25, 2015 Corporate Social Responsibility in India Pramod R. Chaudhari M.J.College, Jalgaon ([email protected]) India is having long tradition of social responsibility by business houses. The Companies Act, 2013 which makes CSR as mandatory affair has taken positively by the Indian corporates and companies in the public and private sector both Indian and multinational started contributing as per the act. The Infosys foundation, Azim Premji foundation and reliance foundation are good examples social initiatives by the companies. The Tata group, Birla group and Bajaj group are known as major contributors since last century and institutions like IIT and BITS are result of their social vision. Researcher present some CSR cases from India. Key words: CSR, India, Companies Act, Social 1. Introduction CSR is defined as “the responsibility of enterprises for their impacts on society”. To completely meet their social responsibility, enterprises “should have in place a process to integrate social, environmental, ethical human rights and consumer concerns into their business operations and core strategy in close collaboration with their stakeholders” CSR is also defined as “the continuing commitment by business to contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families as well as of the community and society at large.” The CSR approach is holistic and integrated with the core business strategy for addressing social and environmental impacts of businesses. CSR needs to address the well-being of all stakeholders and not just the company’s shareholders. Philanthropic activities are only a part of CSR, which otherwise constitutes a much larger set of activities entailing strategic business benefits.
