Digital data spaces and data ecosystems are key to the development of resilient data-driven processes, from research and development to logistics and supply chain management. As a consortium partner in the “HealthTrack-X” project funded by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK), IT service provider adesso is developing a prototype data space for the healthcare sector that makes selected data available quickly and securely.

adesso continues to expand its international business. The German IT service provider has established its second subsidiary on the Arabian Peninsula this year with a new office in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Burak Barı, Head of Global Business at adesso Group, will initially head up the management of adesso UAE as Managing Director. With this additional commitment in the Gulf region, adesso is underscoring its aspiration to establish itself as a major player in the rapidly growing MENA region (Middle East and Northern Africa). Its entry into this market is coupled with a strategic partnership with Seed Group, a company that facilitates seamless access for international businesses to the UAE's lucrative technology market.

adesso SE, a leading international IT service provider from Germany, is one of the first Amazon Web Services (AWS) partners worldwide to receive AWS Digital Sovereignty Competency status. The award was announced at the AWS re:Invent in Las Vegas. This status sets adesso apart as an AWS partner that enables customers to achieve digital sovereignty while fully leveraging the potential of AWS.

adesso, a leading IT service provider from Germany, has taken over the club platform of the international sports marketing agency SPORTFIVE and the associated mobile applications as of 1 November 2024. With the backend solution, which will operate under the name adesso Sports Platform in future, adesso is adding an innovative fan experience solution to its range of solutions for the sports industry. At the same time, adesso and the agency SPORTFIVE, which in future will concentrate entirely on its core business of sponsorship marketing, are intensifying their sales partnership.

IT service provider adesso continues to be one of the leading providers of data and analytics services in Germany. This was confirmed by the latest Lünendonk Study 2024 on Data & Analytics (D&A). For the ranking, the industry analyst evaluated relevant service providers based on their competencies, key offerings, market shares, and market perception. Based on these criteria, Lünendonk listed adesso as one of the market leaders for D&A services.

Using data across sectors promises enormous potential for research and improving patient care in the healthcare sector. At the heart of this effort lies the development of a secure, shared data space – a technology that the IT service provider adesso is already exploring extensively through initiatives like HealthTrack-X.

German companies understand the vital role that a steadfast customer focus plays in achiev-ing business success. Most of them also consider themselves to be well positioned in this ar-ea. However, a closer look reveals a different picture. Many organisations still have a lot of catching up to do when it comes to the technical implementation of customer centricity. This is revealed by the latest Customer Centricity Study by IT service provider adesso.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to turn the way we work today completely on its head. For years, companies across various industries have been working to implement machine learning, deep learning, and other AI-based algorithms to analyse large datasets with self-learning systems and solve specific tasks through pattern recognition built on that foundation. Since the end of 2022, the hype surrounding generative AI, or GenAI for short, has acted as an additional catalyst for this trend. Increasingly, manufacturing companies are also allocating budgets to create the resources needed for the implementation of practical AI solutions.

The question of whether to “make or buy” has long since ceased to be an issue for many companies. As digitalisation advances, companies are increasingly using managed services to deal with the growing complexity of their IT systems. adesso has now bundled all its managed IT services into an integrated offering. The IT service provider aims to offer easier access to its comprehensive range of services in future, so that it can provide its customers with even more targeted and holistic support.

By Volker Gruhn, Chairman of the Supervisory Board and founder of adesso:

No data, no AI. This basically sums up what many companies are currently experiencing. What they would actually like to achieve is data-driven working and using AI applications to deal with such issues as the shortage of skilled labour, supply chain disruptions, and other urgent problems. However, once it comes to implementing specific initiatives or projects, many realise that they do not have the data required. In this respect, a German SME based in Swabia is impacted just as much as a global player with hundreds of sites.
