NTT DATA, a global leader in AI, digital business, and technology services, and Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) have announced a multi-year strategic partnership to accelerate the adoption of private 5G networks and advance edge AI and physical AI use cases for enterprises worldwide.
Combining Ericsson's Private 5G and Edge platforms with NTT DATA’s comprehensive enterprise network services, including wireless expertise, IT/OT security, and managed services, the partnership aims to provide industry-ready solutions that enable confident deployment of private 5G at global scale.
The collaboration focuses on four key areas:
- Delivering scalable global managed services for private 5G with consistent architecture, operations, and security.
- Embedding AI directly into enterprise connectivity via NTT DATA Edge AI agents running on Ericsson’s Edge platforms for real-time intelligence and autonomous decision-making.
- Offering repeatable industry solutions across manufacturing, mining, ports, airports, energy, transportation, and smart cities to accelerate deployment and deliver measurable ROI.
- Unifying global go-to-market strategies through joint sales, marketing, and delivery to streamline deployment and reduce vendor complexity.
Alejandro Cadenas, Associate Vice-President of Worldwide Telco Research at IDC, remarked, “Private 5G is the backbone for scaling AI in production, where autonomous systems must operate reliably and at scale. The combined expertise of NTT DATA and Ericsson overcomes operational, scalability, and accountability challenges, accelerating confident AI deployment.”
Shahid Ahmed, Global Head of Edge Services at NTT DATA, said, “Enterprises adopting edge AI need partners that seamlessly combine connectivity, intelligence, and security in production environments. Together with Ericsson, we are ready to deploy and operate these solutions at scale, delivering real business outcomes.”
Ericsson’s Senior Vice President Asa Tamsons added, “Our decade-long experience in enterprise connectivity supports edge AI and physical AI use cases at scale. Combined with NTT DATA’s managed services and AI-driven operations, enterprises can move from experimentation to always-on production.”
Initial industry use cases include:
- Manufacturing: automated quality inspection, predictive maintenance, and real-time safety monitoring.
- Transportation, ports, and logistics: autonomous operations powered by real-time asset data for dynamic routing and safety.
- Energy and mining: intelligent remote operations and AI-driven monitoring in complex environments.
- Smart cities: intelligent traffic management, public safety, and energy optimization.
This partnership sets the stage for transformative, AI-driven enterprise operations worldwide.
