Wipro launches initiative to pedal for a green cause

Sanjeev - 20 November, 2010 - 08:10

Wipro Ltd. on Friday launched ‘@ Wipro We Cycle', an initiative that enhances Wipro's commitment towards a greener planet and healthy ‘Wiproites'.

Under the initiative, Wipro will offer employees across India the option of purchasing a bicycle at exclusive prices and deals. This initiative was led by Wipro's team of cycling enthusiasts — the Freewheelers — along with Wipro Fit for Life and Wipro's Eco Eye.

Freewheelers are a growing bunch of cycling enthusiasts, who regularly commute to Wipro offices by cycle.

During the launch, Wipro had organised for bicycles and a few employees were given a chance to ride with the Freewheelers. Wipro is also evaluating the idea of having cycles on campus for commuting.
