  • New Accenture NVIDIA Business Group launched with 30,000 professionals receiving training globally to help clients reinvent processes and scale enterprise AI adoption with AI agents
  • Accenture AI Refinery platform helping companies jump-start their custom agentic AI journeys using the full NVIDIA AI stack
  • Network of Accenture AI Refinery Engineering Hubs serving 57,000 Accenture AI practitioners to open in Europe, Asia and North America, supporting large-scale operations, agentic architecture and foundation model development with NVIDIA AI
  • Deployment of autonomous agents built in AI Refinery achieves early outcomes in Accenture’s marketing function
Accenture and NVIDIA have announced an expanded partnership to drive Artificial Intelligence (AI) adoption in enterprises. With this, Accenture has formed a new NVIDIA Business Group to accelerate AI adoption in enterprises. This group will train 30,000 professionals globally to help clients scale AI solutions and reinvent business processes.

The newly formed business group will focus on training Accenture’s workforce to leverage NVIDIA’s AI technology, ensuring they can effectively implement AI solutions for clients. The group will utilize Accenture’s AI Refinery platform, which integrates NVIDIA’s AI stack to develop custom AI agents and scale AI across various industries.

The partnership includes the launch of Accenture's AI Refinery platform, which uses NVIDIA's AI stack to help companies develop custom AI agents and integrate AI across their operations. This collaboration is expected to accelerate the deployment of AI in various industries, enhancing productivity and innovation.

Accenture is establishing AI Refinery Engineering Hubs in Europe, Asia, and North America. These hubs will support large-scale operations, agentic architecture, and foundation model development. The AI Refinery focuses on developing agentic AI systems, which can act on user intent, create new workflows, and take appropriate actions based on their environment. This represents a significant advancement in generative AI.

These hubs will focus on the selection, fine-tuning and large-scale inferencing of foundation models, all of which pose significant accuracy, cost, latency and compliance challenges when development is scaled. Building on existing hubs in Mountain View, Calif., and Bangalore, Accenture is adding AI Refinery Engineering Hubs in Singapore, Tokyo, Malaga and London.

With generative AI demand driving $3 billion in Accenture bookings in its recently-closed fiscal year, the new group will help clients lay the foundation for agentic AI functionality using Accenture’s AI Refinery™️, which uses the full NVIDIA AI stack—including NVIDIA AI Foundry, NVIDIA AI Enterprise and NVIDIA Omniverse—to advance areas such as process reinvention, AI-powered simulation and sovereign AI.

The AI Refinery platform, developed by Accenture in collaboration with NVIDIA, is designed to help enterprises accelerate their AI adoption and innovation. The AI Refinery enables companies to create custom AI agents tailored to their specific business needs. This includes developing large language models (LLMs) and other AI solutions using NVIDIA’s AI Stack.

Accenture will also debut a new NVIDIA NIM Agent Blueprint for virtual facility robot fleet simulation, which integrates NVIDIA Omniverse, Isaac and Metropolis software, to enable industrial companies to build autonomous, robot-operated software-defined factories and facilities.

Accenture will use these new capabilities at Eclipse Automation, an Accenture-owned manufacturing automation company, to deliver as much as 50% faster designs and 30% reduction in cycle time on behalf of its clients.

This partnership aims to drive significant productivity and growth by enabling enterprises to harness the full potential of AI.
