NTT combines its businesses into London-headquartered giant

NTT has combined its various companies including NTT Communications, Dimension Data and NTT Security into one, called NTT Ltd and headquartered in London. Those brands names will go, replaced by NTT Ltd, except in MEA where DD continues as an entity.

It will employ around 40,000 people in offices across 70+ countries and regions, and aim at offering a wider range of services, especially managed services. By bringing together these companies, NTT Ltd says it offers:

  • Clients access to a more comprehensive range and greater depth of skills across multiple technologies and capabilities
  • Global technology and managed services that are world leading in scale and depth
  • Improved ability to deliver more in-depth industry solutions for our clients
  • World-class managed services platforms with the ability to deliver local customizations to meet clients' needs in each market
  • Increased investment in innovation and R&D.

The new company already partners with over 10,000 clients around the world, including the world's leading organizations in financial services, pharmaceuticals, telecommunications, energy & utilities, manufacturing, automotive and technology sectors, it says.

Commenting on the integration, Chris Barnard, VP for Enterprise Infrastructure and Communications at IDC, said, "Organisations worldwide are increasingly looking to technology companies that can adapt and support them across a range of fast-moving challenges, societies, agriculture, and manufacturing need fully-integrated solutions that will help them harness the power of IoT, edge analytics and collaboration platforms. In coming together as one company, NTT is acknowledging this, giving them one single view across their organization for better insights that will help them transform and benefit from change."

Tsunehisa Okuno, Chairman for NTT Ltd and Executive Vice President for NTT Corporation, commented, "Today NTT continues its 120-year heritage of always listening to and innovating for our clients. Along with creating a very strong technology and managed services provider in NTT Ltd., we have also increased our commitment to investing more in R&D, new technology startups through our venture capital fund, and developing our own disruptive innovation business team."

Jason Goodall, CEO of the new NTT Ltd, commented, "Today, we've created a global technology services provider that delivers a full breadth of industry-leading products, solutions, and managed services that address our clients' business needs. We know technology doesn't stand still. And nor do we. We will continue to move our business forward to ensure we deliver solutions that are both relevant for today and tomorrow. We are excited to be part of one of the world's largest technology and business solutions providers and look forward to partnering with our clients around the world with our full range of capabilities."
