LTIMindtree has joined forces with Shopify to launch an AI‑powered Digital Commerce Center of Excellence, a new initiative designed to help enterprises accelerate transformation, scale digital innovation, and future‑proof their e‑commerce operations in an AI‑first world.
Global technology consulting and digital solutions company LTIMindtree announced a new collaboration with Shopify, the enterprise commerce platform trusted by millions of merchants worldwide.

The aim is to empower chief marketing officers and digital leaders with AI‑driven solutions that enhance speed, efficiency, and growth in global markets.

At the heart of the Center of Excellence is a vision to help enterprises embrace AI as the foundation of customer engagement and digital transformation. The CoE will focus on building advanced AI commerce capabilities, creating accelerators designed for specific industries to speed time‑to‑market, and developing toolkits that simplify migration from legacy systems to modern, AI‑first commerce platforms. It will also invest in programs to upskill talent globally and drive new integrations that reduce complexity for large enterprises managing digital transformation at scale.

Future‑Proofing Enterprise Commerce
The creation of the CoE comes at a pivotal moment for global enterprises, many of which are under pressure to adapt to heightened customer expectations, rapid market shifts, and the impact of AI across industries. According to LTIMindtree, the initiative is about preparing organizations not just for immediate growth, but for long-term resilience in a rapidly evolving digital economy.
By aligning advanced artificial intelligence technologies with Shopify’s scalable infrastructure, the CoE will act as both a research lab and an execution hub. Enterprises engaging with the center will gain access to targeted strategy design, advanced tooling, and continuously updated best practices, enabling them to build end‑to‑end commerce experiences that deliver both operational efficiency and customer‑centric value.
The initiative also underscores LTIMindtree’s broader commitment to expanding its role as a trusted advisor to global CMOs and digital leaders. Having established itself in data‑driven engineering and scaling solutions for enterprises, the company now sees AI‑powered commerce as the next frontier where technology and customer experience converge.
For Shopify, the partnership reflects its continual effort to support enterprise‑level transformation with platforms that not only power retail but also adapt to new modes of engagement across industries and ecosystems. By embedding artificial intelligence at the foundation of commerce operations, Shopify and LTIMindtree say they will provide enterprises with a roadmap that simplifies complexity while keeping innovation at the forefront.
An AI‑First Path Forward
The launch of the AI Commerce Center of Excellence positions LTIMindtree and Shopify as joint enablers of next‑generation digital commerce. As enterprises worldwide compete for customer attention in a marketplace defined by personalization, speed, and seamless experiences, the CoE aims to provide the critical infrastructure and expertise required to thrive.
By investing in co‑developed solutions, enterprises can anticipate faster deployment of new capabilities, more accurate insights from AI commerce tools, and an enhanced ability to scale in diverse markets. For digital leaders facing the challenge of aligning brand transformation with global growth, the partnership offers a pathway to merge agility with trust, innovation with governance, and performance with long‑term sustainability.
