Offering AI solutions, training, and support to accelerate industry adoption, Tech Data and Dell Technologies have joined hands to launch the Dell AI Factory in India.
Tech Data and Dell Technologies have recently disclosed its partnership to establish the Dell AI Factory in India to accelerate AI adoption across industries. This collaboration will result in the creation of a centre of excellence (CoE) that will showcase product demonstrations and use cases, with Tech Data’s AI programme.
According to the companies, the initiative will also see both working with independent software vendors (ISVs) to deliver pre-validated, end-to-end AI solutions, combining Dell’s hardware with tailored software.
These solutions aim to simplify AI deployment for partners, enabling them to better meet customer needs in a fast-evolving market.
Furthermore, Tech Data’s Destination AI™ programme will support partners by offering training, technical guidance, and pre- and post-sales services. This will help partners enhance their AI capabilities and grow in the rapidly expanding Indian AI market.
The company will onboard additional ISVs to enhance the Dell AI Factory with complementary software solutions to further bolster the AI ecosystem, ensuring greater adaptability for various industries.
Sundaresan K., Vice President and Country General Manager, Tech Data Advanced (India), said, “The Dell AI Factory, combined with our Destination AI™ programme, is designed to equip them with the advanced tools and capabilities they need to meet the growing demand and deliver cutting-edge AI solutions to their customers.”
