Sinequa Partners with ITOCHU Techno-Solutions Corporation and Expands into the Japanese Market

Joining Forces to Deliver Cognitive Search and Analytics Solutions to the Japanese Market


NEW YORK, Oct. 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sinequa, a leader in cognitive search and analytics, today announced a partnership with ITOCHU Techno-Solutions Corporation, a total IT service provider with more than 45 years of experience in delivering innovative technologies, to commercialize, deploy and manage the Sinequa Cognitive Search & Analytics Platform in Japan.

Sinequa and ITOCHU Techno-Solutions Corporation will help alleviate the collective cognitive burden for organizations that are confronted with massive amounts of data to analyze by empowering their knowledge workers with AI-driven search. On any given day, a typical large enterprise may need to surface insights from data volumes of more than 500 million documents and billions of records.

Sinequa provides an AI-powered platform that enables life science companies to become information-driven by extracting and leveraging critical insights from large volumes of complex data. Headquartered in Tokyo, ITOCHU Techno-Solutions Corporation complements Sinequa’s strengths with about three decades of experience and more than 6,000 engineers to serve major customers primarily from Japan as well as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and the United States.

“Having worked for years with research organizations and life science companies, we’ve witnessed how companies are being overwhelmed with data from documents related to lab reports, experimental drug results, clinical trials, research and patent findings over email and other forms of communication,” said  Kazuhiko Nagao, General Manager, Life Science Division, Distribution & Enterprise Group of ITOCHU Techno-Solutions Corporation. “By adding Sinequa’s Cognitive Search & Analytics platform to our IT portfolio, we can now help customers discover critical insights that can lead to major breakthroughs and in some cases avoid devastating mishaps.”

“We are excited to partner with ITOCHU Techno-Solutions Corporation and expand Sinequa’s footprint in the Japanese markets with an established and trusted system integrator,” said Xavier Pornain, Senior Vice President of Sinequa. “In today’s world, especially in large organizations, it is impossible for humans alone to search, process and analyze all available data whether on-premise or in the cloud or both. Analyzing data in Japanese and many other languages has been one of the key strengths of our solution.  Sinequa’s Cognitive Search & Analytics platform makes critical and relevant information available to knowledge workers on demand to facilitate their mission. Together with our partner ITOCHU Techno-Solutions Corporation, we are committed to helping these organizations improve insights and accelerate innovation.”
