NTT DATA Signs Strategic Collaboration Agreement with AWS to Accelerate Enterprise Cloud and Agentic AI Adoption

LONDON - Thursday, 29. January 2026

(BUSINESS WIRE)--NTT DATA, a global leader in AI, digital business and technology services, today announced a multi-year Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to help enterprises modernize legacy systems, adopt agentic AI responsibly and scale innovation across industries.

Combining NTT DATA’s expertise in cloud transformation, cloud-native modernization and Agentic AI with the scale and innovation velocity of AWS services, the collaboration will deliver tailored enterprise solutions that modernize mission-critical workloads, build secure cloud foundations and drive measurable business outcomes across regulated and high-growth industries.

Under the agreement, NTT DATA and AWS will accelerate enterprise transformation in four priority areas:

AI-driven large-scale cloud transformation: Accelerating the migration and modernization of on-premises workloads on AWS, leveraging generative and agentic AI, automation and data platforms to unlock new business models and drive intelligent operations.

Industry cloud solutions on AWS: Delivering modern industry-specific, repeatable offerings across financial services, healthcare, life sciences, public sector, manufacturing, retail and energy, leveraging NTT DATA’s Industry Cloud with 500+ extensible business components and AI agents.

AI and data innovation for modern managed services and client experiences: Operating secure, compliant cloud environments at scale, including a recent collaboration agreement to modernize contact center solutions on Amazon Connect to accelerate the adoption of AI-driven customer experience (CX) solutions worldwide.

Digital sovereignty and regulated cloud solutions on AWS European Sovereign Cloud:

Enabling European governments and enterprises to meet stringent data residency and operational autonomy requirements. As a launch partner for the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, NTT DATA will deliver sovereign-by-design cloud solutions and managed services that combine regulatory compliance with the same security, availability and performance clients expect from AWS.

AWS will support NTT DATA in running co-innovation programs, certifications and client events, to help enterprises adopt AI driven cloud solutions faster and with greater confidence.

To advance delivery, NTT DATA has formed a dedicated AWS Business Group, aligned with the AWS sales and delivery structure. This group includes close to 11,000 AWS-certified experts, with the objective of certifying nearly 10,000 more experts over the next three years.

"Cloud and AI are central to enterprise transformation," said Abhijit Dubey, President and CEO, NTT DATA, Inc. “Through our Strategic Collaboration Agreement with AWS, we are helping clients move beyond experimentation to scale AI impactfully and responsibly. This collaboration underscores our commitment to deliver secure, industry-specific solutions that create tangible business value for our clients worldwide."

“This collaboration will help more enterprise organizations unlock the potential of the cloud and AI to modernize their operations and accelerate innovation,” said Greg Pearson, VP AWS Global Sales. “Through industry-aligned architecture platforms, AI-driven customer experiences, and support in meeting evolving regulatory requirements through the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, we’re enhancing the ability to transform legacy workloads and build modern digital experiences on AWS.”

Proven success with Honda Trading Asia

Honda Trading Asia successfully migrated to the AWS Cloud with the expert support of NTT DATA.

"Migrating to the AWS Cloud with the expert support of NTT DATA has been an essential step in modernizing our systems and infrastructure and provides us with a powerful foundation for AI innovation. NTT DATA were always available to address our technical questions and worked closely with us to stay within our timeline and budget. Their expertise and support ensured a smooth transition, unlocking exciting growth possibilities through AWS,” said Somya Mayuraskoon, Director, Honda Trading Asia Co., Ltd.

Driving AI innovation across industries

NTT DATA will develop dozens of new industry-specific, AI driven cloud solutions on AWS through its Industry Cloud platform to accelerate digital transformation across regulated and high-growth sectors.

Financial services: The collaboration will modernize core banking and compliance workloads to reduce risk and ensure regulatory requirements.

Healthcare and life sciences: With support from AWS, NTT DATA will develop secure, AI-enabled data platforms to deliver intelligent insights from business applications, improving outcomes and accelerating research.

Public sector: NTT DATA will work with AWS to deliver private cloud solutions that meet compliance requirements and enable secure digital services for citizens.

State Street, in Collaboration with ADIO, to Create 300+ New Jobs With Launch of New Al Ain Operations Hub

 BOSTON & ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates - 

The expansion further solidifies State Street’s role as a trusted strategic partner in Abu Dhabi’s financial ecosystem, supporting the emirate’s commitment to regional economic diversification and developing next-generation talent in Al Ain.

 

(BUSINESS WIRE)--State Street Corporation (NYSE: STT), one of the world’s leading providers of financial services to institutional investors, has signed a support agreement with the Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) to establish a new operating center in the Al Ain region, Abu Dhabi. The collaboration marks a significant step in State Street’s long-term expansion strategy in the Middle East and UAE and reinforces its role as a strategic partner within the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) ecosystem.

As part of its long-term growth plan in Abu Dhabi and aligning to State Street’s global clients’ increasing presence in Abu Dhabi, the new operating hub will create more than 300 financial services roles over the next four years, providing meaningful career pathways for local Emirati talent. In addition, State Street will collaborate with local universities to create career and internship opportunities for graduates, as well as organize training and seminars to help develop the next generation of local young talent, aligning with Abu Dhabi’s priority to build a knowledge-based, globally competitive workforce.

“State Street’s strategy is to meet our clients where they are going. We are committed to investing in the growth of our UAE business and expanding our presence in Abu Dhabi and the ADGM,” said Ron O’Hanley, Chairman and CEO of State Street. “Abu Dhabi, including Al Ain, is a strategic priority for State Street, and we believe our experience in global financial centres can support the emirate’s continued development as an important global financial hub. The combination of strong local talent and our global expertise positions State Street as a trusted partner to both local and international institutions.”

This collaboration also forms part of ADIO’s FinTech, Insurance, Digital and Alternative Assets (FIDA) cluster, a platform to develop high-value, exportable financial capabilities and create a future-facing financial services ecosystem. By 2045, the cluster is projected to contribute an additional AED56 billion to Abu Dhabi’s gross domestic product (GDP) and attract at least AED17 billion in investment, aligned with the emirate’s wider economic diversification agenda.

“State Street’s expansion into the Al Ain region reflects the type of long-term, capacity-building partnership that supports Abu Dhabi’s economic development agenda across the emirate, aligned with the priorities of the Falcon Economy. We welcome this partnership and value State Street’s contribution to creating high-quality employment opportunities for UAE nationals, nurturing talent development in the Al Ain region, and upskilling future leaders for the financial sector,” said H.E. Ahmed Jasim Al Zaabi, Chairman of Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development and Abu Dhabi Global Market.

“By anchoring investment, developing specialised financial talent and strengthening institutional capability, this initiative advances priority sectors while embedding sustainable, high-value opportunities for national talent across Abu Dhabi. As we continue to expand strategic partnerships, we remain focused on equipping UAE talent with the skills and pathways needed to support economic diversification and accelerate Abu Dhabi’s transition towards a more resilient, knowledge-based economy,” H.E. Al Zaabi added.

State Street has been active in Abu Dhabi since 2018 through its presence in ADGM, where it continues to serve institutional clients across the region. The launch of the Al Ain region operating center represents a natural progression of this commitment, broadening its contribution to Abu Dhabi’s financial services landscape and talent development agenda.

The agreement reflects the shared ambition between ADIO and State Street to co-create a robust, globally competitive financial environment, one that nurtures talent, accelerates innovation and reinforces the UAE’s standing as a destination for long-term investment and strategic growth.

In addition to its collaboration with ADIO and role as a trusted strategic partner to Abu Dhabi, State Street intends to upgrade its ADGM licence. This enhancement would enable the firm to further strengthen local market infrastructure, introduce leading global capabilities, and expand global access to position ADGM as on its “Path to Forward” as a premier international financial center.

Multi-Color Corporation Announces Recapitalization to Reset Balance Sheet and Position Company for Long-Term Growth and Investment

 MCC Enters into Restructuring Support Agreement to Eliminate Approximately $3.9 Billion of Outstanding Funded Debt, Reduce More than $330 Million of Cash Interest Expense in 2026 and Extend Long-Term Debt Maturities to 2033

Restructuring Supported by CD&R and More Than Supermajority of Senior Secured Lenders Who Have Agreed to Backstop a Nearly $890 Million Investment; Provides More Than $500 Million of New Liquidity to Support Long-Term Growth and Investment Upon Emergence

Launches Consent Solicitation and Expects to Implement Restructuring Through “Prepackaged” Chapter 11 Process; Restructuring Support Agreement Provides for CD&R to Be Controlling Shareholder

All Trade Vendors Expected to be Paid in Full; All Global Operations and Service to Customers Expected to Continue Without Interruption

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Multi-Color Corporation (“MCC” or the “Company”), a global leader in prime label solutions, today announced strategic actions to further position the Company for long-term growth and investment to best serve its customers.

MCC has entered into a restructuring support agreement (the “RSA”) with holders of approximately 70% in amount of MCC’s secured first lien debt and its equity sponsor, CD&R, on the terms of a comprehensive financial restructuring. The transactions contemplated by the RSA will significantly deleverage MCC’s balance sheet, reducing its net debt load from approximately $5.9 billion to approximately $2.0 billion. The Company’s annualized cash interest will also be reduced from approximately $475 million to $140 million in 2026, a reduction of over $330 million, with long-term debt maturities extended to 2033 following consummation of the restructuring transactions.

To implement the transactions contemplated by the RSA, MCC has launched a solicitation for votes in support of a prepackaged plan of reorganization (the “Plan”), which is currently supported by holders of approximately 70% in amount of MCC’s secured first lien debt and CD&R. The RSA provides for an $889 million new common and preferred equity investment that will support long-term growth and investment. Upon emergence, MCC will have more than $500 million of liquidity.

“Over the past two years, we have taken decisive actions commercially and operationally, while onboarding top-notch leadership talent, to best position MCC for sustainable, profitable growth,” said Hassan Rmaile, President & Chief Executive Officer of MCC. “Our operational initiatives are showing momentum, and optimizing our capital structure is an essential step to advance our growth strategy. This agreement, which reflects a strong vote of confidence by MCC’s sponsor and lenders, will create a stronger financial foundation, enabling us to enhance the innovative and high-quality label solutions that help brands connect with consumers, enhance product integrity, and drive sustainable impact. We are grateful for CD&R’s and our lenders’ support as well as the ongoing dedication of our employees, customers, and suppliers.”

BUSINESS AS USUAL

The RSA also provides for $250 million of new money debtor-in-possession (“DIP”) financing to capitalize the business throughout the Chapter 11 process. This additional financing, when approved, is expected to allow MCC to continue operating in the ordinary course during the restructuring without impacting trade creditors, customers, employees, vendors, or suppliers, and will allow the Company to honor its commitments to strategic partners.

Upon commencement of the prepackaged Chapter 11 proceedings, MCC will file a series of first day motions that, subject to court approval, will allow the Company to continue to operate in the ordinary course of business while it works to deleverage its capital structure. In addition to seeking approvals related to the DIP financing, MCC will seek authority to allow the Company to continue to maintain wages and benefits without interruption, satisfy employee-related claims, pay vendors in the ordinary course, and perform other critical functions and processes necessary for the Company to continue uninterrupted operations.

ADDITIONAL RESOURCES

Additional information is currently available at MCCForward.com. Upon the Chapter 11 filing, MCC will also provide details on various legal aspects of MCC’s restructuring process, including access to Court documents.

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Motive, a global leader in mobile device and service management software, has today announced its IMPACT IoT solution has been named the Gold winner for Best Cellular IoT Initiative in the 2026 Telco Innovation Awards.

Motive’s IMPACT IoT solution beat off strong competition in the Network & Connectivity Innovation category, which “honours the pioneers building smarter, faster, and more resilient networks for a connected world” to be named as the Best Cellular IoT Initiative.

IMPACT IoT offers an intelligent, code-free, cloud-native, and secure network-triggered solution that removes unnecessary signaling and SMS overhead, optimizing eSIM and firmware management for long-lived, low-power devices. The platform is already delivering measurable results for operators like TPG Telecom in Australia, which has deployed IMPACT IoT to power the country's largest smart water meter rollout, serving upwards of 1.7 million customers with advanced device and data management capabilities.

Sam Barker, VP of Telecoms Market Research and Head Judge, Telco Innovation Awards, at Juniper Research, commented: “Our judges found Motive’s IMPACT IoT solution innovative as it allows operators and enterprise to effectively manage constrained low-power IoT devices at scale, extending the device lifecycle, and minimizing operator operating expenditure. The solutions’ optimization for eSIM will be key for operators and vendors wanting to capitalize on the growing role of eSIM technology in cellular IoT.”

Colin Grealish, Product Director, IoT and Intelligence at Motive, said: “We’re thrilled to have been recognized by Juniper Research and to win this prestigious industry award. The Telco Innovation Awards champion excellence and innovation, which is one of the key benefits of our IMPACT IoT offering; leveraging telecom interfaces and standards but extending them to handle devices that may change IP addresses often, remain dormant/offline for long periods, or only sporadically connect for their core data payloads.”
