Shaping the future of software driven business

Business outcomes and people outcomes are two sides of the same
coin. We believe that people outcomes cannot be achieved without
breathing life into work. Our theme ‘Life At Persistent’ has evolved
over the last year to help employees create harmony so they can
pursue their professional and personal interests together without
having to compromise one for the other. As we look ahead, our focus
will continue to be on initiatives that align business and individual
growth, developing a culture of ownership at all levels and creating a
vibrant workplace.

We have completed a decade of commitment in the field of CSR.
The impact assessment by an external specialist firmshows that we are
on the right track, which further boosts our confidence to go forward
with full force. In the future, we are committed to providing better
services to our beneficiaries, better opportunities to our partners for
capacity building, and better outcomes to our stakeholders through
razor sharp focus in project execution across our charter and across
all locations.

According to research, 80% of organizations will embark on
competency development initiatives in the field of data literacy by
2020. And just as data is becoming more important, so is protecting
that data from the increasing number of security breaches.
Accelerite is developing tools that provide the Enterprise as well
as ISVs the ability to gain insights to the data without the need for
specialized skills. Accelerite ShareInsights, with a visual designer
and no code interface, makes it possible for business users to design
data pipelines and run machine learning models to get to the insights
they need.
Accelerite’s Sentient family of products secures today’s enterprises
and delivers peace of mind to the CIOs and CISOs. Accelerite aims
at simplifying security by reducing the friction and costs associated
with security.
