The agreement targets four core areas to help enterprises move beyond AI experimentation toward impactful, responsible scaling. AI-driven cloud transformation will leverage generative and agentic AI, automation, and data platforms to modernize on-premises workloads and unlock new business models. Industry cloud solutions will deliver repeatable, compliant offerings tailored to regulated and high-growth sectors.
AI and data innovation will enhance managed services and customer experiences, including modernization of contact centers on Amazon Connect for AI-powered CX worldwide. Digital sovereignty efforts will support European governments and enterprises through the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, ensuring data residency, operational autonomy, and regulatory compliance with full AWS security and performance.
"Cloud and AI are central to enterprise transformation," said Abhijit Dubey, President and CEO, NTT DATA, Inc. “Through our Strategic Collaboration Agreement with AWS, we are helping clients move beyond experimentation to scale AI impactfully and responsibly. This collaboration underscores our commitment to deliver secure, industry-specific solutions that create tangible business value for our clients worldwide.”
“This collaboration will help more enterprise organizations unlock the potential of the cloud and AI to modernize their operations and accelerate innovation,” said Greg Pearson, VP AWS Global Sales. “Through industry-aligned architecture platforms, AI-driven customer experiences, and support in meeting evolving regulatory requirements through the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, we’re enhancing the ability to transform legacy workloads and build modern digital experiences on AWS.”
The partnership builds on NTT DATA’s Smart AI AgentTM Ecosystem and AWS’s innovation environments, including sandboxes and dedicated labs for joint development, testing, and refinement of solutions before enterprise-scale deployment. NTT DATA provides full-stack support—from advisory and transformation to implementation and managed services—ensuring secure, confident adoption.
"Migrating to the AWS Cloud with the expert support of NTT DATA has been an essential step in modernizing our systems and infrastructure and provides us with a powerful foundation for AI innovation. NTT DATA were always available to address our technical questions and worked closely with us to stay within our timeline and budget. Their expertise and support ensured a smooth transition, unlocking exciting growth possibilities through AWS,” said Somya Mayuraskoon, Director, Honda Trading Asia Co., Ltd.
This SCA strengthens NTT DATA’s position as a global leader in AI and digital transformation, enabling enterprises to achieve measurable outcomes through trustworthy data foundations, intelligent operations, and compliant innovation in an increasingly AI-driven world.
