NTT DATA has entered a global partnership with Google Cloud to accelerate AI-powered cloud innovations and expand enterprise adoption across industries.
The collaboration brings together NTT DATA’s deep industry expertise in AI, cloud-native modernisation and data engineering with Google Cloud’s advanced analytics, AI and cloud technologies to deliver tailored, scalable solutions.
The partnership will focus on industry-specific applications of agentic AI and cloud modernisation in sectors including banking, insurance, manufacturing, retail, healthcare, life sciences and the public sector.
In financial services, it will support regulatory compliance and reporting through NTT DATA’s Regla platform, which uses Google Cloud’s scalable AI infrastructure.
In hospitality, NTT DATA’s Virtual Travel Concierge, powered by Google’s Gemini models, provides multilingual support, real-time itinerary planning and personalised travel recommendations.
The companies will also advance secure and sovereign cloud deployments through Google Distributed Cloud, offering both air-gapped environments for maximum data isolation and connected options that integrate with cloud services.
These deployments aim to meet data sovereignty and regulatory requirements in sectors such as finance, government and healthcare.
NTT DATA has set up a dedicated global Google Cloud Business Group of thousands of engineers, architects and advisory consultants, working closely with Google Cloud teams to help clients adopt and scale AI-driven cloud technologies.
The company plans to certify 5,000 engineers in Google Cloud technology.
Both firms are making joint investments in global sales and go-to-market campaigns to drive adoption in priority industries.
The partnership builds on a 2024 co-innovation agreement in Asia Pacific and follows NTT DATA’s acquisition of Google Cloud specialist Niveus Solutions, which received three 2025 Google Cloud Awards for its work in India, the APAC region and Chile.
“This collaboration with Google Cloud represents a significant milestone in our mission to drive innovation and digital transformation across industries.
By combining NTT DATA’s deep expertise in AI, cloud-native modernisation and enterprise solutions with Google Cloud’s advanced technologies, we are helping businesses accelerate their AI-powered cloud adoption globally and unlock new opportunities for growth.”
said Marv Mouchawar, Head of Global Innovation, NTT DATA.
“Our partnership with NTT DATA will help enterprises use agentic AI to enhance business processes and solve complex industry challenges.
By combining Google Cloud’s AI with NTT DATA’s implementation expertise, we will enable customers to deploy intelligent agents that modernise operations and deliver significant value for their organisations.”
said Kevin Ichhpurani, President, Global Partner Ecosystem at Google Cloud.
