Julien Brain

Julien runs Wipro’s AWS Marketplace program, where contract value has more than tripled year over year, while leading the company’s global LGBTQIA+ charter for over 230,000 employees. Partnerships also drive his inclusion work. He brokered Wipro’s participation in the Open for Business Investor Guide to LGBTQ+ Inclusion and secured a third Wipro Cares grant for Gaydio Academy’s digital skills training for LGBTQ+ youth. Internally, he earned executive sponsorship for his business case to broaden the board’s definition of diversity, including LGBTQIA+ representation. He volunteers on Switchboard’s LGBTQIA+ helpline after completing the listener training. The British LGBT Awards named him a Top 10 Inspirational Leader, and he was a Changemaker of the Year finalist at the British Diversity Awards, where Wipro’s Europe Pride Employee Resource Group was Highly Commended. He co-hosted a Capco event on inclusion and AI, spoke at myGwork’s WorkPride, and writes about changing organizations from within at julienbrain.com.
