Infosys Teams Up with Spark New Zealand for AI-Powered Digital Transformation
In a major leap forward in digital transformation, Infosys has partnered with Spark New Zealand to bring cutting-edge AI solutions and cloud technologies to the forefront. This collaboration will harness Infosys’ powerful platforms—Topaz and Cobalt—enabling Spark to reduce IT operating costs while delivering more personalized and AI-driven digital customer experiences.
The Power of Infosys Topaz and Cobalt
Infosys’ Topaz, an AI-first suite of services, solutions, and platforms powered by generative AI, will be at the core of this collaboration. This will help Spark streamline its operations and unlock significant efficiencies.
Meanwhile, Infosys Cobalt, designed to accelerate cloud adoption, will provide Spark with the tools needed to fast-track its cloud journey, ensuring scalable and secure growth.
With these powerful solutions, Spark aims to enhance its ability to deliver cutting-edge digital services to its customers, transforming the way businesses interact with consumers in an AI-driven world.
Strengthening Spark’s IT Strategy
Under this agreement, Infosys will leverage its global expertise in DevOps and software engineering. Spark will benefit from Infosys’ capabilities in building, testing, integrating, and delivering its IT systems and applications.
As Spark continues to innovate, Infosys will provide comprehensive ongoing support and monitoring to ensure these systems run smoothly and securely.
However, Spark will retain full control over its IT assets, technology architecture strategy, product design, and innovation roadmap. This ensures that Spark’s vision and direction remain intact, while Infosys contributes its global reach and deep technical knowledge.

Infosys in the Digital World
Infosys has consistently been a leader in next-generation digital services and consulting. The company reported a 4.61% rise in consolidated net profit for Q3 FY25, reflecting its continued success and strong position in the global market. However, despite its positive financial performance, Infosys’ stock slipped by 1.52%, reflecting some investor uncertainty.
The collaboration between Infosys and Spark New Zealand marks an exciting chapter in the digital transformation journey. With a shared commitment to innovation, this partnership is set to unlock new efficiencies and enhance customer experiences. As Infosys brings its global expertise to Spark’s operations, the future looks promising for both companies in their quest to stay ahead in the digital age.
