Data-center business located in Argentina which enables organizations to develop data-driven decision-making based on big data, analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI), Ergo, has been purchased by Accenture. The data specialist team from Ergo will be joining the Accenture Cloud First. Accenture will be able to deliver their clients across the Hispanic South American market, spanning Argentina, Chile, and Colombia data-led transformations through the deal. The deal was completed for an undisclosed amount.
Karthik Narain, global lead for Accenture Cloud First stated, “Almost every day, 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are created by humans and machines across the cloud continuum at the edge, on the internet, and in data centers. Cloud is the place where all this data gains accessibility and scale. Cloud’s advanced data & AI tools empower companies to transform data into intellectual capital like never before. By acquiring Ergo, Accenture will bring more resources to help clients gain insights about where to focus their transformation for the most value and how data can support better decision-making through the transformation process.”
