Accenture and Google Cloud announced an expansion of their global partnership through a renewed commitment to growing their respective talent, increasing their joint capabilities, developing new solutions using data and AI, and providing enhanced support to help clients build a strong digital core and reinvent their enterprises on the cloud.
Today, more than 13,000 skilled Accenture cloud professionals with over 5,000 Google Cloud certifications are helping companies shape, move and operate their business on Google Cloud. Moving forward and to build on years of successful partnership, Accenture and Google Cloud will invest more resources to help clients operate cloud-first organizations and deliver value under compressed timelines, the statement said.
“Large, global organizations require highly trained business transformation experts to execute their digital transformations and to quickly generate business value from their cloud investments,” said Thomas Kurian, CEO at Google Cloud. “This next phase of our partnership with Accenture will significantly scale the professional services and implementation support available to customers globally and deliver new solutions to help businesses and public sector organizations benefit from Google Cloud’s capabilities in AI, ML, data analytics, cybersecurity and more.”
“Cloud offers boundless opportunities for companies to be more innovative and resilient, but the real world is full of barriers to value,” said Karthik Narain, global lead of Accenture Cloud First. “Our expanded partnership with Google Cloud is designed to help clients build a strong digital core utilizing Google Cloud infrastructure and products in areas like cybersecurity, data analytics, application modernization and more. A strong digital core helps companies respond to change and shifting dynamics within their industry. By working with Google Cloud to expand talent and pre-build industry-specific, productized solutions, we will accelerate time to value for clients on Google Cloud, from public to edge and everything in between.”
