Quote for National Technology Day 2026 Venkatesan Vijayaraghavan, Chief Operating Officer, Virtusa Corporation

“On National Technology Day 2026, the theme ‘Responsible Innovation for Inclusive Growth’ places the spotlight on how technology is built, deployed, and scaled across real-world environments. Responsible innovation calls for strong data foundations, secure architecture, and clear governance so that systems are reliable and trusted at scale. Inclusive growth comes from ensuring these systems are designed for widespread, everyday use across industries and user segments. In India, where digital infrastructure and enterprise adoption are advancing rapidly, this balance is becoming critical. At Virtusa, we focus on operationalising AI and platform-led models with this discipline, leveraging platforms such as Virtusa Helio to enable organisations to deliver consistent, measurable outcomes while building technology that performs reliably across enterprise environments.” — Venkatesan Vijayaraghavan, Chief Operating Officer, Virtusa Corporation
