HCL Technologies announced its software division will acquire Robotiq.ai for EUR 9 million in cash to bolster enterprise automation capabilities, with the deal expected to close by November 2026. The acquisition adds RPA functionality to HCL's UnO Agentic platform, enabling end-to-end orchestration of AI agents across complex business environments. This strategic move strengthens HCLSoftware's position in the growing market for production-scale AI automation solutions. The target, a Croatia-based company with EUR 1.4 million revenue and EUR 0.2 million profit in 2025, brings ISO-certified security and enterprise-grade execution tools to HCL's portfolio, potentially expanding its addressable market in banking, insurance, and telecom sectors.

HCL Technologies announced a first-of-its-kind AI-based synthetic research study targeting the global wealth management industry, revealing that 84% of firms recognize the need for operating model redesign but only 12% measure AI's impact on revenue, highlighting critical blind spots in ambition, execution, and strategy despite 98% pursuing AI initiatives.
