NTT DATA announced that it has resolved at its Board of Directors meeting to combine the overseas business of NTT into the NTT DATA group's overseas business.
Until now, NTT DATA has expanded the scale of its overseas business largely through M&A, in addition to solid business expansion within Japan. The company has achieved positive results in its overseas business by undertaking business structure reforms aimed at strengthening its digital responsiveness and improving profitability.
NTT Group will combine its overseas businesses operated by NTT DATA, NTT, Inc. and NTT Ltd., respectively, and will develop their business as a unified group of companies.
Until now, the Company has supported various corporate systems and industry infrastructures with its power to "create" based on deep client understanding and advanced technological capabilities. Combining the businesses under one operating company will enhance the value provided by the Company, while employing the power to "connect" capabilities of NTT Ltd.
Specifically, NTT DATA will combine its system integration capabilities, in vertical industry expertise, digital consulting, application development, and managed services capabilities with NTT Ltd.'s 'Edge to Cloud' service operation capabilities, mainly in the field of data centers, networks and managed services. This will enable the company to integrate IT services and Connectivity and respond to increasingly complex and diverse client needs on a global level by centrally developing a service portfolio necessary for digital transformation.In the medium- to long-term, the combined company will work to create new social platforms and innovate services that transcend corporate and industry boundaries. This will be accomplished through comprehensive managed services, including from Edge to Cloud, which integrate IT and Connectivity to connect all things securely, while also developing innovative services globally that utilize NTT's IOWN technology to create a sustainable future.
