alliance relationship spanning two decades, the Innovation Center
now offers global clients access to new services and solutions
using the latest IBM cloud technologies including Bluemix and
interaction with an onsite lab designed to help inspire innovative,
scalable open source solutions leveraging faster application
development methodologies.
"We have created a unique environment in Bangalore where clients
are immersed in the very latest Accenture innovations made possible
through the use of IBM cloud technologies," said Adam Burden, group
technology officer, Accenture Technology Delivery. "We offer
clients the opportunity to help accelerate their webscale systems
development and assemble industry-specific and personalized
applications quicker through next-generation software engineering
techniques enabled by Bluemix."
The Accenture Innovation Center for IBM Technologies in
Bangalore is part of a global team of dedicated Accenture
practitioners with broad knowledge in IBM software and hardware,
supporting over 1,200 Accenture client teams and training over
15,000 Accenture practitioners annually. This helps enable
Accenture to deliver a broad range of services based on IBM
technologies in the areas of service-oriented architecture for
application and middleware integration, business process
management, analytics and big data, commerce, smarter
infrastructure and Infrastructure-as-a-Service, mobility and
security.
"We are delighted with the expansion of the Accenture Innovation
Center for IBM Technologies in Bangalore," said Dr. Daniel Sabbah,

IBM launched Bluemix with a $1 billion investment in 2014,
maturing to become one of the largest Cloud
