Clients will work alongside Accenture engineers to use
contemporary architectures, reusable components and intelligent
automation tools. The speed of prototype and custom application
creation is accelerated using Agile and DevOps development
principles, which crucially shorten the time to real business
impact. Apps developed in the Liquid Studio help to deliver on
Accenture’s Future of Applications vision of liquid, intelligent
and connected software.
“London has emerged as an amazing environment where innovation,
speed and scale all come together,” said Emma McGuigan, senior
managing director, Accenture Technology. “The leading digital
businesses understand how to leverage innovative technologies and
have the capability to move quickly when changes are needed.
Opening a Liquid Studio so close to where these companies are based
in London will help them build digital experiences and unlock new
value. Liquid Studios are an integral part of the Accenture
Innovation Architecture, serving as a vital connection point
between rapid application prototyping and practical, real world
software deployment.”
The Liquid Studio in London has flagship capabilities around AI
and cognitive processes, as well as offering expertise in IoT,
cloud, blockchain and security amongst other essential technology
solutions. The Liquid Studio benefits from being part of the
Accenture alliance ecosystem. This network enables it to use open
innovation to take cutting-edge technologies and digital expertise
from the start-up community and into development for clients. This
is one of the ways that Accenture endeavours to lead with
innovation to help clients “imagine and invent” the future.
The London site will collaborate with the Accenture Liquid
Studios in Silicon Valley, Paris, Milan, Nantes and Kronberg, and
with the Accenture Labs, where Accenture incubates and prototypes
new concepts through applied R&D projects. Accenture plans to
open more Liquid Studios around the world in 2017.
The Accenture Innovation Architecture brings together the
company’s capabilities—from research, ventures and labs to studios,
innovation centers and delivery centers—to develop and deliver
disruptive innovations for clients, and to scale them faster.
