Software AG has recently enjoyed a significant momentum increase with Accenture. Together they have co-hosted multiple training events for Accenture employees, executive luncheons for joint prospects/ customers, and customer alignment/strategy sessions. This has led to many joint contracts in Europe and North America.
Software AG continues to gain traction on the Accenture strategic vendor radar. We are currently building joint process frameworks to be hosted by the Accenture Delivery Center in France (Paris). Software AG's market leading solutions brought to fruition by Accenture's delivery excellence and industry expertise offer excellent opportunities to customers around the world.
