Hitachi, Ltd. (Hitachi) is announcing plans to launch Hitachi Digital Inc. (Hitachi Digital), a new global digital services company, on April 1, 2027—uniting Hitachi’s U.S. subsidiaries, GlobalLogic Inc. (GlobalLogic) and Hitachi Digital Services LLC (Hitachi Digital Services) under a single company using the Hitachi brand.
According to the company, Hitachi Digital will steadily guide enterprise digital transformation at the convergence of cloud, data, and AI toward concrete business results.
“Our clients need one partner who understands how an industry works, maintains deep technology ecosystem relationships, while engineering what’s new, modernizing what’s underneath and keeping it all running across the enterprise,” said Anand Birje, CEO and chairman, Hitachi Digital. “Hitachi Digital brings digital engineering and operations together as one company, at global scale, with the industrial depth of Hitachi behind us. We can be our clients’ one trusted partner from strategy through operations, engineering what the world depends on.”
With approximately 35,000 professionals in 27 countries and more than 880 active clients, Hitachi Digital combines product and software engineering with enterprise systems and operational expertise, backed by more than 100 years of Hitachi experience building and operating mission-critical infrastructure, the company said.
Hitachi Digital delivers sustainable solutions across both the physical and digital tech stack, engineering new digital products and AI capabilities for its clients, modernizing the enterprise core behind them, and running them reliably at scale
Hitachi Digital will serve as a strategic partner across the full transformation lifecycle, bringing deep domain expertise in key vertical industries and AI-era focused service lines including Physical AI, Data and Intelligence, Cloud and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), and Enterprise Applications.
What further sets Hitachi Digital apart is the Hitachi Group’s long-standing operational technology (OT) and domain knowledge in industrial businesses. Backed by that knowledge, Hitachi Digital will accelerate the implementation of both enterprise AI and Physical AI in industries including manufacturing, mobility and energy, as well as across the Hitachi Group through its “customer zero” initiatives, said Hitachi.
Hitachi Digital will continue to scale through investment in AI, data, and cloud talent, including FDEs, along with expanded alliances and acquisitions across the technology ecosystem. Hitachi Digital will also drive adoption of Lumada 3.0, empowering co-creation for client innovation and continue to expand its business, said the company.
“With the launch of Hitachi Digital, Hitachi will evolve into a global digital services company capable of providing end-to-end solutions ranging from enterprise AI to Physical AI,” said Jun Abe, executive vice president and head of the digital systems and services sector, Hitachi. “By uniting GlobalLogic’s digital engineering with Hitachi Digital Services’ enterprise and operational expertise, and leveraging the FDE team as a driving force, together with Hitachi’s OT and domain knowledge in social infrastructure, we will work alongside clients throughout their business transformation and help maximize value creation. Through these efforts, we will strongly advance our clients’ digital transformation globally, drive the growth of Lumada 3.0 and contribute to the harmonized society envisioned in Hitachi’s management plan, ‘Inspire 2027.’”
