Branko Ilić, Managing Director at Eviden d.o.o. Beograd

AI Pioneers In Serbia

Separation within French IT giant Atos led to the emergence of two powerful entities: Atos and Eviden. Under a new name, the company is continuing to operate in areas that reflect its origins, with increased robustness, enthusiasm and an extended portfolio

Apart from wanting to be recognised as a desirable digital partner, the company’s aim is for its clients, employees and partners to see it as a responsible, modern and agile company, which is what Eviden Serbia actually is. That’s why it continues to boldly approach technological challenges and the trends that are dictated by global and local circumstances.

When a company is split up, the result is usually two weaker companies. However, that hasn’t been the case with you. With what kind of vision are you moving forward?

One of the largest carve-out processes in the IT industry was announced a year ago and launched in April this year, and it resulted in the creation of a new company under the name Eviden.

The aim is for Eviden to be – as the French origin of the word suggests – the ’obvious’ choice in sustainable digital transformations based on real data and new technologies. I always like to emphasise that the most important resource of our company is people, their expertise and their spirit.

You and your colleagues have been shown a unique opportunity for you to be an important part of the development of the company that will operate under the name Eviden. Which areas of the IT industry will be in your focus? Are you ready for this challenge?

With the new name, we are continuing to operate in areas that reflect our origins, so – as Eviden – we are also providing services in the field of digital transformation, Cloud, Advanced computing, Application Modernisation Services, SAP, Cybersecurity and Big Data solutions.

We have been the leading SAP partner in Serbia for many years and we are proudly continuing to develop expertise in this area, with a special focus on SAP Cloud services

We have been the leading SAP partner in Serbia for many years and we are proudly continuing to develop expertise in this area, with a special focus on SAP Cloud services. Oracle Cloud, Service- NOW and AppD are some of the strategic vendor solutions that we are successfully developing and placing on our market.

Digital transformation is creating ever- greater challenges, while the expectations of clients are also increasing constantly. How will this new phase of your digital expansion look?

In today’s unpredictable economy that’s characterised by disruptive changes and great competition, expanding the portfolio and market appears to be the only path to success. We spent the previous period working on the development of new solutions and services. Alongside the strategic long-term partnership with SAP and the focus on Cloud services, but also the strategic initiative that we have with global partners, we are constantly pushing the boundaries and following the signs given to us by the local market, and apart from that we are also looking to the near future that has already arrived in the EU and the U.S. Serious steps already exist in terms of adopting the required knowledge and expertise, but also opportunities for sales in new technologies, such as the application of the services of key global hyperscalers AWS, Microsoft Azure, Oracle and artificial intelligence in various industrial branches.

When it comes to AI, I must mention the fact that we are a true pioneer in this segment when it comes to Serbia. Specifically, Eviden delivered a national AI platform for the Republic of Serbia in the form of an infrastructure-software platform (HPC) that’s intended exclusively for this purpose.
