On Wednesday 12 August, 2026, Vodafone Business, the enterprise arm of VodafoneThree, announced a strategic partnership with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS). This partnership combines the strengths of both organisations to drive transformation and enhance customer experience for UK enterprise customers.
The collaboration brings together Vodafone Business’ expertise in connectivity, cyber security, cloud and digital services with TCS’ global capabilities in technology, consulting, cloud, AI, sovereign and systems integration. This powerful combination will empower customers across various industries, including healthcare, education, financial services, manufacturing, retail, and critical national infrastructure.
The agreement builds on VodafoneThree’s £11bn investment to create the UK’s best network for business, providing organisations with secure, resilient, and scalable digital foundations to modernise and grow. TCS brings deep UK market experience, having supported UK enterprise for 50 years with digital transformation and talent development, creating 42,000 jobs directly and indirectly in the country. Together, Vodafone Business and TCS aim to strengthen the UK’s digital economy by supporting enterprise growth, innovation, and better customer experience.
Nick Gliddon, Business Director at VodafoneThree, expressed his excitement for the partnership, stating, “UK businesses are looking for partners who understand their market, their customers, and the pressure to modernise quickly. The challenge for many organisations is not ambition, it is execution: making the right technology choices, integrating them properly, and turning investment into measurable impact. We are pleased to welcome TCS to our growing ecosystem of strategic partners, helping Vodafone Business deliver the services, expertise, and digital experiences customers need to move faster, reduce complexity, and grow with confidence.”
Vinay Singvi, Head of UK and Ireland at TCS, also shared his thoughts on the partnership, saying, “We see enormous potential to leverage AI and digital transformation, scale of operating model, and deep technology expertise, and wide industry domain experiences to unlock greater value for Vodafone Business, TCS, and its customers in the UK, not only improving revenue but also enhancing customer experience.”
This partnership will support collaboration across priority areas such as cloud transformation and migration, AI and automation, cyber security, network modernisation and digital infrastructure, data and analytics, IoT and connected business applications, managed services, and operational transformation. The aim is to provide UK enterprise customers with the necessary tools and support to modernise faster, improve customer experience, and unlock new growth opportunities.
