IBM acquires US-based Neudesic
By MYBRANDBOOK
IBM announced the acquisition of Neudesic, a US-based cloud services consultancy specializing primarily in the Microsoft Azure platform, along with bringing skills in multi-cloud. This acquisition will significantly expand IBM’s portfolio of hybrid multi cloud services and further advance the company’s hybrid cloud and AI strategy.
Neudesic will add on to IBM’s consulting capabilities in the hybrid cloud and AI and also beef up its consulting focus as more and more deals are digital in nature. Neudesic has a total headcount of 1,500 cloud and data experts. More than half of its headcount is based in India across Hyderabad, Bengaluru and Kochi.
IBM has acquired more than 20 companies, including Neudesic, 12 in IBM Consulting alone. The new acquisition builds upon IBM’s prior acquisitions of cloud transformation capabilities, including Sentaca, SXiQ, BoxBoat, Nordcloud and Taos.
When asked what is the significance of India to IBM’s Consulting unit, John Granger, Senior VP, IBM Consulting said, “India continues to be a really important part of our business from the delivery perspective. Majority of our delivery to our clients in IBM consulting is driven out of India, and we have a superb pool of talent there that we're continuing to grow. And we'll be continuing to invest in the skill sets across hybrid cloud AI, intelligent workflows, application modernization, and will continue to push those forward here.”
Granger further elaborated that the company has expanded its existing presence by opening up IBM Client Innovation Centre in Mysuru to support the company’s growth in the region and to help grow our hyper cloud and AI technology.
