Technology major Wipro has revamped its brand identity and unveiled a new "bold and dynamic" brand identity. Replacing a logo featuring a multi-coloured sunflower introduced in 1998, Wipro's new logo comprises multi-coloured dots in four circles. "The expanding pattern symbolizes a boundless Wipro. The four circles represent the Wipro Values, Employees, Clients & partners, and communities. The blue of the word mark creates a sense of reliability and authority," Bengaluru-based Wipro - India's third-largest software services firm - said in a statement.

Wipro said the dots on the new logo represent the way it "connects the dots" with its clients - in terms of technology and domain expertise, applying insights across industries and delivering end-to-end services. "The multi-colored dots convey a dynamic energy and optimism...With our identity, we offer an invitation to others to join us in a future that's better and bolder - and even more beautiful - than what has ever been imagined," Wipro said on its website.
