“We invest in raising our Reinventors, our primary strategy,” Sweet said. He said. The company announced that Reskilling is not a “suitable way” that “a compression came out of the timeline”.

Angie Park, Chief of Accenture, said, “We expect more than 1 billion dollars from our business optimization program, which we expect to re -invest in our business and our people, because we are very important for our future growth, and therefore we are still waiting to re -invest while offering a modest margin expansion.” He said.

In addition to interruptions, he continued to hire and strengthened the AI ​​ability with the AI ​​and data professional employed from 40,000 in 2023 in 2025. Sweet said he expects the company’s intervention in the next financial year in markets, including the US and Europe.

The company reported an income of 69.7 billion dollars this year, a 7% growth compared to the previous year. In an interview with CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street”, Sweet fixed this growth to distribute this growth to its big customer demand among organizations.

“Our early investment in artificial intelligence really works.” He said. He continued: “We feel very good in the 26 financial year because it is the company you are really partner to to ensure that you can use the accenture with accenture that we see in our business.”

“Every CEO, Board of Directors and C-Suite acknowledges that Advanced AI is critical for the future. The difficulty they face is now that they are really excited about technology and they are not yet ready for most companies.”
