Accenture [NYSE: ACN] is setting up generative AI studios in
nine countries across Asia Pacific and Latin America to respond to
growing client interest in the technology. Studios across
Australia, Argentina, Brazil, Greater China, India*, Japan, Mexico,
Philippines and Singapore* will connect clients with data and AI
experts from Accenture, and ecosystem partners, ventures, and other
strategic investments to enable rapid experimentation, co-creation
and scaling of generative AI solutions using Accenture’s
responsible AI framework as a foundation.
“Clients today are ready to move beyond proof of concepts and
into production to tackle more complex business problems across
their value chain. They also recognize that generative AI
introduces new, unique risks that need consideration and
mitigation,” said Leo Framil, CEO of Accenture Growth Markets.
“Drawing on our experience of client conversations, existing
projects, our rich talent and industry partnerships, our generative
AI Studios will provide enterprises with the best ideas and
capabilities to shape tailor made solutions and help them reinvent
their business, responsibly.”
According to a recent Accenture survey, 77% of the C-suite in
APAC plan to increase their AI-related spending in 2024 as
companies move from proof of concept to customizing foundation
models with proprietary data. 84% of the C-suite in LATAM plan to
do the same.
“Harnessing the true potential of generative AI lies in going
deeper, and building a strong data strategy, anchored in a digital
core including a modern cloud and ERP infrastructure, and mature
data and AI capabilities,” said Vivek Luthra, Data and AI lead for
Accenture Growth Markets. “Our generative AI Studios strengthen our
existing investments in data and AI to provide our clients with a
full spectrum of capabilities to build and scale AI to improve
productivity and drive growth.”
The studios will cater to a wide range of industry and
functional needs, but each will also specialize in one or more
industries including banking, insurance, telecommunications, public
sector, manufacturing, renewable energy, chemicals and mining. The
studios will be operational in January 2024, except in Argentina
and Mexico which will join the network later this year.
The studios are part of Accenture’s $3 billion investment in
data and AI. The company also recently announced the launch of
specialized services to help clients build their own large language
models that are tailored to meet their specific business needs.
Note to editors: * Generative AI Studios already exist.
