Patrick Dupuis joined PayPal as chief financial officer in 2010.

New Delhi: Wipro, India's third largest software services firm, on Wednesday said it has roped in financial and business strategist Patrick Dupuis as an independent member on its board.

With effect from April 1, 2016, Mr Dupuis will serve as an independent director on the board and brings with him a rich experience of over 30 years, Wipro said in a statement.

He is currently senior vice president for simplicity, quality and productivity at global technology platform and payments leader PayPal Holdings Inc, it added.

Azim Premji, chairman of Wipro, said Mr Dupuis brings with him a combination of financial acumen and a deep understanding of driving cultural and operational transformation.
