Accenture and NVIDIA have expanded their partnership with the launch of a new Accenture NVIDIA Business Group, aimed at helping enterprises scale AI adoption. This initiative includes training for 30,000 professionals globally to assist clients in reinventing processes and expanding the use of enterprise AI systems.
The new business group will leverage Accenture’s AI Refinery platform, which uses NVIDIA’s AI stack, to help companies accelerate their AI journeys. The AI Refinery will be available across public and private cloud platforms and aims to streamline AI-powered simulation, process reinvention, and sovereign AI.
Scaling Agentic AI Systems
Accenture’s AI Refinery is set to scale the next frontier of AI : agentic AI. “We are breaking significant new ground with our partnership with NVIDIA and enabling our clients to be at the forefront of using generative AI as a catalyst for reinvention,” said Julie Sweet, chair and CEO of Accenture.
To support this initiative, Accenture is introducing a global network of AI Refinery Engineering Hubs in key regions, including Singapore, Tokyo, Malaga, and London. These hubs will focus on the large-scale development of AI models and operations.
Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA, added, “AI will supercharge enterprises to scale innovation at greater speed.” This collaboration has already seen successful use cases, such as Indosat Group in Indonesia using agentic AI to develop industry-specific solutions in financial services.
Additionally, Accenture is debuting the NVIDIA NIM Agent Blueprint for virtual factory simulations, integrating NVIDIA Omniverse and Isaac software. Accenture’s marketing division has also begun using the AI Refinery platform with autonomous agents to streamline campaigns, achieving a 25-55% increase in speed to market.
Accenture has been on a role to adopt generative AI across their platform by providing training for upskilling opportunities to their employees.
Agentic AI has been a hot topic of discussion across major tech providers over the last few weeks. From Oracle to Salesforce, major Saas players had unveiled a number of AI agentic products across their wide suite of products. There has also been a steady increase in providing autonomous databases for their customers.
