A partnership deployed in International Markets including Africa, Asia Pacific, Middle East, Turkey, South & Southeast Europe and Switzerland. <\/b><\/p>\n

Atos<\/b><\/a>, a global leader in AI-powered digital transformation, today announced the signing of a Master Collaboration Agreement with Backbase<\/b><\/a>, the creator of the AI-Native Banking OS.<\/a> The agreement strengthens collaboration between the two companies to support financial institutions in accelerating AI-native transformation while maintaining control, compliance, and resilience in increasingly complex and regulated environments across International Markets including Africa, Asia Pacific, Middle East, Portugal, Spain, Southeast Europe, Switzerland and Turkey.<\/p>\n

As Financial institutions are under increasing pressure to innovate with AI while maintaining strict control over data, operations, and regulatory compliance, Atos and Backbase will support clients in modernizing their banking platforms while ensuring that transformation remains secure, governed, and aligned with specific sovereignty requirements.<\/p>\n

The agreement establishes a structured framework for collaboration across opportunity development, professional services, delivery enablement, training, and joint go-to-market initiatives. Together, Atos and Backbase will support banks and financial institutions in modernizing customer journeys, enhancing digital engagement, and delivering seamless, customer-centric banking experiences.<\/p>\n

The collaboration combines Backbase\u2019s AI-Native Banking OS with Atos\u2019 expertise in AI-powered transformation, systems integration, sovereign cloud, cybersecurity, and large-scale services delivery. By aligning their complementary capabilities, the two companies aim to help financial institutions build agile, resilient, and future-ready digital banking environments.<\/p>\n

Daniele Principato, head of International Markets, Atos, <\/b>said: “This agreement with Backbase reflects our commitment to helping financial institutions in International Markets harness the power of AI in a secure and scalable way. The demand for resilient and future-ready banking platforms continues to grow across all our markets and by combining our global expertise with strong partners and our regional leadership, we are well positioned to support our clients in navigating transformation with confidence and control.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

Ricardo Ribelles, global VP partnerships and alliances, Backbase<\/b>, <\/i>added: <\/i>“Atos brings the sovereign cloud infrastructure, integration depth, and regional reach that banks in these markets need. Together we close the gap between a bank’s AI ambitions and the reality of running those capabilities at scale – inside a governed, compliant architecture that meets local data sovereignty requirements.”<\/em><\/p>\n

This agreement further reinforces Atos\u2019 role as a trusted partner to the financial services sector, supporting secure, sovereign cloud-driven, and AI-native transformation programs, while leveraging Backbase\u2019s deep banking and agentic technology expertise to accelerate innovation and modernization.<\/p>\n
