The strategic acquisition significantly strengthens Fidel\u2019s on-ground delivery capabilities in Japan while advancing its global expansion strategy and AI innovation roadmap.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"739\" data-end=\"1153\">Founded more than three decades ago, IM Corporation specializes in functional consulting, enterprise IT services, and digital transformation support for Tier-1 Japanese system integrators and enterprise clients. Over the past three years, the company has also developed AI-assisted service models using its proprietary neural knowledge framework, helping SI firms improve delivery productivity and knowledge reuse.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1155\" data-end=\"1720\">With a team of over 150 skilled professionals and deep cultural alignment with Japan\u2019s enterprise ecosystem, IM Corporation has built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality consulting and technology services. Following the acquisition, Fidel\u2019s Japan operations expand to a combined strength of 200+ professionals, positioning it among the prominent India-origin SME technology service providers with a strong local Japan delivery presence. Globally, the Fidel group now has a workforce of over 500 professionals serving clients across multiple geographies.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1722\" data-end=\"2239\">The partnership enhances Fidel\u2019s capabilities in AI-enabled services, enterprise solution implementation, bilingual consulting, managed services, and language localization solutions tailored to Japanese enterprises. By integrating IM Corporation\u2019s local project management strengths and functional consulting expertise with Fidel\u2019s global technology, AI, and digital engineering capabilities, the combined entity aims to deliver faster execution, innovation-driven outcomes, and improved business agility for clients.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2241\" data-end=\"2713\">\u201cJapan is a strategic market for Fidel, and this acquisition marks an important milestone in our global growth journey,\u201d said Sunil Kulkarni, CEO, Fidel. \u201cIM Corporation\u2019s deep understanding of the Japanese market, combined with Fidel\u2019s expertise in IT and AI-driven services, creates a powerful platform to deliver enhanced value to customers in Japan and beyond. This partnership reflects the long-standing trust and relationships we have built in Japan over the years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2715\" data-end=\"2892\">The leadership team at IM Corporation will continue to play an active operational role to ensure business continuity and seamless integration with Fidel\u2019s global delivery model.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2894\" data-end=\"3206\">\u201cPartnering with Fidel opens new opportunities for innovation and global collaboration,\u201d said Kikuchi-san, President &amp; CEO, IM Corporation. \u201cTogether, we are well positioned to offer advanced technology and AI-enabled solutions to Japanese enterprises while maintaining the quality and trust our clients expect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3208\" data-end=\"3630\">The acquisition aligns with Fidel\u2019s broader strategy to expand its international delivery footprint, strengthen its presence in key global markets, and invest aggressively in AI-led and next-generation technology services.
