Infosys has expanded its collaboration with Meta to drive innovation in generative AI through open-source initiatives, leveraging Meta's Llama stack, a family of open-source large language models and tools.

Infosys has unveiled a Meta Centre of Excellence (COE) to accelerate enterprise AI integration and support internal adoption and contributions to open-source communities. The COE will enable a large pool of talent on the Llama stack, develop industry-specific use cases, and collaborate closely with Meta to help customers adopt the Llama stack.

In addition, Infosys has launched a dedicated AI Experience Zone for Meta at its Bengaluru campus, offering customers a firsthand experience of the innovative enterprise AI advancements developed by Infosys Topaz in collaboration with Meta's Llama technology.
