Google Cloud acknowledges BIP’s excellence in evolving its customers’ cloud services in the Italian market.
BIP has been awarded “Italy Partner of the Year – Services” by Google Cloud for its constant commitment to accelerate and improve the safe technological transformation of its customers’ Cloud and Artificial Intelligence systems.
Google Cloud recognizes the Center of Excellence BIP xTech for its valuable skills and experience gained with Google Cloud technologies. With the right combination of Google Cloud solutions, BIP xTech has helped clients reinvent their systems, make increasingly data-driven decisions, and transform their professionals’ and end users’ experience, thus achieving sustainable results.
2023 was also an essential year for Cyber Security collaboration. The collective effort of Google’s innovative technologies and the Center of Excellence Bip CyberSec’s consolidated experience gained in over ten years of consulting favoured the birth of Re@ck Security Center. An innovative Security Operation Center based no longer on many analysts but on artificial intelligence and process automation systems, which enable a concrete and effective response to potential cyber-attacks.
Digital transformation does not show signs of a slowdown. The cloud market is growing increasingly: the International Data Corporation (IDC), in his “Worldwide Black Book Live Edition”, estimates that overall cloud spending will see a significant 22% increase in 2023, driving the ICT market to 82.7 billion dollars. Investment in technology will continue to grow more than GDP, equal to +0.7% annually in 2023.
Partners play a key role in developing Google’s Italian Cloud Regions. An independent study of the Digital Innovation Observatories and the Energy & Strategy Group of the Politecnico di Milano calculates that because of these infrastructures, the supply chain will enjoy greater attention to digitization issues, generating a new market estimated at around 1,904 million euros in the three years 2023-2025.
