IBM's Labs, full of some of the best and brightest minds in the industry, have opened their doors to work more closely with clients on all sorts of interesting and challenging problems.
It’s a simple equation. Bringing IBM's prized Research and Development resources closer to clients worldwide is driving results; making it easier for the clients to tap into IBM's immense technical talent; and giving IBM's researchers and scientists access to their own prize, the ability to work on real world, seemingly unsolvable problems.
Made in IBM Labs showcases projects from IBM's global labs, some already being used by our clients, and others that will change the way we work, live and play in the coming months, years and beyond.
IBM's technical talent and resources are massive:
- More than 25,000 technology developers in more than 60 major development labs around the world.
- More than 3,200 scientists and engineers in eight Research labs in six countries.
- IBM invested more than $6 billion in R&D in 2007 and has increased its R&D investment by 29 percent since 2002.
- More patents than any other company for 15 consecutive years.
- A Business Partner network of more than 100,000.
- An innovation ecosystem of greater than one million.
