NVIDIA and Global Consulting Leaders Speed AI Adoption Across Japan's Industries

12/11/2024

Consulting giants including Accenture, Deloitte, EY Strategy and Consulting Co., Ltd. (or EY Japan), FPT, Kyndryl and Tata Consultancy Services Japan (TCS Japan) are working with NVIDIA to establish innovation centers in Japan to accelerate the nation's goal of embracing enterprise AI and physical AI across its industrial landscape.

The centers will use NVIDIA AI Enterprise software, local language models and NVIDIA NIM microservices to help clients in Japan advance the development and deployment of AI agents tailored to their industries' respective needs, boosting productivity with a digital workforce.

Using the NVIDIA Omniverse platform, Japanese firms can develop digital twins and simulate complex physical AI systems, driving innovation in manufacturing, robotics and other sectors.

Like many nations, Japan is navigating complex social and demographic challenges, which is leading to a smaller workforce as older generations retire. Leaning into its manufacturing and robotics leadership, the country is seeking opportunities to solve these challenges using AI.

The Japanese government in April published a paper on its aims to become the world's most AI-friendly country. AI adoption is strong and growing, as IDC reports that the Japanese AI systems market reached approximately $5.9 billion this year, with a year-on-year growth rate of 31.2%.1

The consulting giants' initiatives and activities include:

Accenture has established the Accenture NVIDIA Business Group and will provide solutions and services incorporating a Japanese large language model (LLM), which uses NVIDIA NIM and NVIDIA NeMo, as a Japan-specific offering. In addition, Accenture will deploy agentic AI solutions based on Accenture AI Refinery to all industries in Japan, accelerating total enterprise reinvention for its clients. In the future, Accenture plans to build new services using NVIDIA AI Enterprise and Omniverse at Accenture Innovation Hub Tokyo.

Deloitte is establishing its AI Experience Center in Tokyo, which will serve as an executive briefing center to showcase generative AI solutions built on NVIDIA technology. This facility builds on the Deloitte Japan NVIDIA Practice announced in June and will allow clients to experience firsthand how AI can revolutionize their operations. The center will also offer NVIDIA AI and Omniverse Blueprints to help enterprises in Japan adopt agentic AI effectively.

EY Strategy and Consulting Co., Ltd (EY Japan) is developing a multitude of digital transformation (DX) solutions in Japan across diverse industries including finance, retail, media and manufacturing. The new EY Japan DX offerings will be built with NVIDIA AI Enterprise to serve the country's growing demand for digital twins, 3D applications, multimodal AI and generative AI.

FPT is launching FPT AI Factory in Japan with NVIDIA Hopper GPUs and NVIDIA AI Enterprise software to support the country's AI transformation by using business data in a secure, sovereign environment. FPT is integrating the NVIDIA NeMo framework with FPT AI Studio for building, pretraining and fine-tuning generative AI models, including FPT's multi-language LLM, named Saola. In addition, to provide end-to-end AI integration services, FPT plans to train over 1,000 software engineers and consultants domestically in Japan, and over 7,000 globally by 2026.

IT infrastructure services provider Kyndryl has launched a dedicated AI private cloud in Japan. Built in collaboration with Dell Technologies using the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA, this new AI private cloud will provide a controlled, secure and sovereign location for customers to develop, test and plan implementation of AI on the end-to-end NVIDIA AI platform, including NVIDIA accelerated computing and networking, as well as the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software.

TCS Japan will begin offering its TCS global AI offerings built on the full NVIDIA AI stack in the automotive and manufacturing industries. These solutions will be hosted in its showcase centers at TCS Japan's Azabudai office in Tokyo.

Located in the Tokyo and Kansai metropolitan areas, these new consulting centers offer hands-on experience with NVIDIA's latest technologies and expert guidance - helping accelerate AI transformation, solve complex social challenges and support the nation's economic growth.
