Accenture Expands Partnership with Nvidia to Boost AI Adoption
  • PublishedOctober 7, 2024

Accenture has announced an expanded partnership with Nvidia, aimed at helping clients accelerate their journey in adopting agentic AI through a new business group. This initiative, built on Accenture’s AI Refinery platform, will be supported by a network of engineering hubs across Europe, Asia, and North America, providing businesses with the tools and expertise to harness the potential of AI technologies.

Partnering with Nvidia, Accenture’s new business group will leverage the Nvidia AI stack, including Nvidia AI Foundry, AI Enterprise, and Omniverse, to help enterprises operationalize agentic AI. This form of AI can autonomously perform tasks and make decisions, integrating smoothly with enterprise workflows. The aim is to drive rapid and scalable AI adoption, particularly for companies still facing challenges in implementing generative AI technologies.

Lan Guan, Accenture’s chief AI officer, highlighted during a press conference that, despite high demand, only 10% of companies have fully scaled their generative AI operations. Guan noted, “Many of our clients do not see the full benefits of gen AI yet. Cost, complexity, and technical readiness are common hurdles, but we believe agentic AI will be a game changer in how our clients reinvent their business.”

Accenture said the group will also debut a new Nvidia NIM Agent Blueprint to assist industrial companies in developing autonomous, robot-operated software-defined factories, potentially reducing cycle times by 30%. Moreover, Accenture’s AI Refinery platform is being integrated into its marketing function to automate campaigns, cut costs, and speed up market deliveries.

As part of its global expansion, Accenture will open new AI Refinery Engineering Hubs in Singapore, Tokyo, Malaga, and London, strengthening its ability to support large-scale AI adoption.
