WNS Founded

British Airways sets up WNS in Mumbai, India

In July 2006, we became one of the earliest BPM companies to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbol ‘WNS,’ and a new, energized entity took root.

The BPM landscape changed dramatically over the next few years. To align with those disruptive changes, in 2010 we took a vertical approach to BPM. Everything from our offerings in technology and analytics to our training initiatives were closely connected with industry-specific expertise and needs. The collaborative approach we brought in made WNS an extended part of our clients’ businesses.

Over the years, WNS has become a top-tier consultative player, co-creating end-to-end, high-end, industry-specific technology and analytics-enabled solutions with clients. Our offerings span over 10 industries and clients look to us for our innovative practices and ability to co-create new business models. Today, WNS is a strategic partner to hundreds of clients, engaging deeply and constantly finding ways to better business outcomes.
