Tech Mahindra and NVIDIA collaborate to advance drug safety with agentic solution
Tech Mahindra, a leading global provider of technology consulting and digital solutions to enterprises across industries, announced a pharmacovigilance (PV) autonomous solution built with NVIDIA AI software to advance drug safety management.
The transformative solution leverages agentic artificial intelligence (AI) and automation to enhance the accuracy, speed, and efficiency of pharmacovigilance processes, addressing critical industry challenges such as manual delays and data overload.
Powered by Tech Mahindra's TENO framework, which is built on NVIDIA's cutting-edge AI technology, the solution is designed to automate and optimise pharmacovigilance workflows. By integrating the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software platform, including NVIDIA NeMo™, NVIDIA NIM™ microservices, and NVIDIA AI Blueprints, the Tech Mahindra solution streamlines case intake, data transformation, quality control, and compliance management, thereby ensuring a seamless and intelligent PV workflow. Additionally, the LLM-powered AI agents within the solution autonomously handle case classification, prioritisation, and verification of pharmacovigilance emails to reduce the risk of human error.
Nikhil Malhotra, Chief Innovation Officer & Global Head of AI and Emerging Technologies Tech Mahindra, said, 'As the pharmaceutical industry navigates volumes of data during trials and post-launch, our collaboration with NVIDIA leverages generative AI and multi-agent systems to streamline pharmacovigilance process. Together, we are revolutionising drug safety management and using the innovative AI-driven framework to develop multiple use cases for our global customers'.
Tech Mahindra and NVIDIA work together to provide better patient outcomes by bringing agentic AI-driven intelligence to pharmacovigilance. The pharmacovigilance industry manages over 1,000 daily cases of adverse drug reaction (ADR) for major drugs. For instance, in the case of an email reporting adverse drug reaction (ADR), the AI-driven PV solution instantly flags, prioritises, and processes the request by eliminating human intervention that could potentially lead to delays and errors. The solution reduces turnaround times by up to 40%, enhances data accuracy by 30%, and cuts operational costs by 25%. This ensures timely case processing, regulatory adherence, and proactive risk mitigation, thereby transforming pharmacovigilance from reactive to predictive.
John Fanelli, Vice President, Enterprise Software, NVIDIA, said, 'AI is ideal for monitoring medicines throughout their lifecycle to support safety. Integrating AI into the Tech Mahindra TENO framework with NVIDIA AI Enterprise software enhances pharmacovigilance by augmenting human capabilities to help identify potential safety issues more effectively'.
Tech Mahindra has also expanded its TENO framework to encompass NVIDIA AI Enterprise, enriching it with customised AI agents to address a broad spectrum of industry challenges. The framework integrates NVIDIA NeMo™ to accelerate generative AI pipeline for data collection and curation, coupled with Tech Mahindra's VerifAI solution for data validation and governance. The distributed training and model customisation capabilities embedded within the framework ensure that the AI models continuously evolve to enhance decision-making precision.

Cisco Powers AI-Ready Data Centers, From Hyperscale to Enterprise
Today Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO) unveiled groundbreaking innovations to simplify, secure, and future-proof data centers, empowering organizations to scale their AI ambitions with confidence. Cisco's leadership in hyperscale and AI infrastructure-as-a-service markets demonstrates the foundational role that secure, resilient networking plays in today's data center architecture. In Q3 FY25, Cisco notably surpassed its annual target of $1 billion in AI infrastructure orders from hyperscalers a full quarter ahead of schedule. Building on this momentum, Cisco's latest innovations enable enterprises and service providers to continue to accelerate the transformation of their infrastructure for the AI era. These innovations underscore Cisco's unique position as a trusted partner for hyperscale builders, neocloud providers, enterprises, and service providers, enabling the entire ecosystem to evolve and meet the demands of AI-driven workloads. 'The world is moving from chatbots intelligently answering our questions to agents conducting tasks and jobs fully autonomously. This is the agentic era of AI,' said Jeetu Patel, President and Chief Product Officer, Cisco. 'As billions of AI agents begin working on our behalf, the demand for high-bandwidth, low latency and power efficient networking for data centers will soar. Cisco is at the forefront, delivering advanced, secure networking technology that's foundational to the AI-ready data centers of the future.' 'The criticality of secure connectivity becomes more apparent as AI use expands across the enterprise,' said Matt Kimball, Moor Insights & Strategy. 'Cisco's ability to deliver AI-ready infrastructure to its customers, along with its investment in AI-enabled operations differentiates the company. It is this kind of partner and customer-first thinking that leads to AI-powered tools that abstract the complexity associated with deploying and managing AI infrastructure. AI reaching its full potential is dependent on a resilient network on which partners build and deliver solutions and services.' Simplifying, Securing, and Modernizing Enterprise AI Infrastructure Enterprises need to evolve and build out their current infrastructure to support their unique AI workloads, all without adding complexity or sacrificing safety and security. Cisco provides enterprise customers with new solutions to modernize their data centers, including hardware innovation and more powerful, simplified management capabilities. Cisco is also continuing to build on its relationship with NVIDIA to deliver validated infrastructure solutions, and to provide a safe and secure foundation for AI agents built with open models.
