“This initiative, currently based in Denmark, is a global endeavor that will benefit our customers around the world,” said Norbert Rotter, CEO of NTT DATA Business Solutions and EVP of NTT DATA, Inc.
In addition, the CoE will incorporate new applications of generative AI into NTT DATA’s it.human platform, which enhances the customer experience through integrated capabilities of IBM watsonx, machine learning, speech recognition, natural language processing and conversational AI. “Companies are increasingly adopting generative AI. To do this, they need the right customer and industry knowledge combined with the best open technology,” emphasizes Kate Woolley, General Manager, IBM Ecosystem. “The partnership with IBM enables NTT DATA Business Solutions to co-develop solutions for clients that are characterized by inherent flexibility, governance and openness.”
In addition, the joint project benefits from IBM resources in the areas of training, education and technology, including IBM Cloud. This will generate use cases and provide access to foundational models and best practices to support client projects utilizing the watsonx platform. NTT DATA Business Solutions will provide the sales staff for the CoE to engage with customers, develop use cases and implement AI products. “We expect increased customer investment in AI this year,” says Nicolaj Vang Jessen, EVP, Global Innovation & Industry Consulting, NTT DATA SAP TFA and responsible for the NEE region at NTT DATA Business Solutions. “The CoE aligns our resources, methodologies and industry knowledge, supported by IBM’s exceptional expertise.”
A preview of the current projects was presented at the IBM TechXchange Summit EMEA in Barcelona. There, Thomas Noermark, Global Head of Innovation at NTT DATA Business Solutions, and Thor Hauberg, Director Venture Lab and Digital Business Transformation at NTT DATA Business Solutions, gave an overview of the current status in several sessions.
