GlobalLogic specializes in advanced digital engineering, experience design, and data services to help customers accelerate innovation and the development of new digital products and experiences through collaborative creation on a global scale. The acquisition of GlobalLogic will enhance the Hitachi Group's ability to deliver on its strategy of advancing its Social Innovation Business through digital technology to address the challenges facing customers and society. Furthermore, the Hitachi Group will be able to further accelerate the digital transformation of social infrastructure globally by expanding its core digital solutions business, Lumada, worldwide.

GlobalLogic's capabilities, combined with those of Hitachi's Lumada, will enable GlobalLogic to deploy Hitachi's broad range of digital solutions in the global market and help customers and society solve their problems through agile cloud application development. Furthermore, Hitachi expects that the collaboration between GlobalLogic and Hitachi's five business sectors—Information Technology (IT), Energy, Industry, Mobility, Urban Development & Smart Cities, and its automotive systems business (Hitachi Astemo)—will add significant value to its extensive product portfolio by incorporating advanced digital technologies and creating new solutions for Lumada. Through these efforts, Hitachi and GlobalLogic will work together to address the growing digital innovation market and promote the global expansion of Lumada's business, furthering Hitachi's mission to increase social, environmental, and economic value for customers by focusing on three key areas: Environment, Resilience, and Safety and Security, while contributing to a more sustainable society.
