German and Swiss companies are radically shifting their IT strategies from public clouds to private and hybrid solutions, creating significant opportunities for Information Services Group (ISG). A recent study by the Nasdaq-listed tech consultancy reveals tightening regulations, data security concerns, and economic uncertainty are driving demand for cost-efficient, controlled infrastructure. With 1,600 experts globally, ISG advises over 900 clients—including 75 Fortune 100 firms—on navigating this transition. Its proprietary "Provider Lens" reports, which rank 101 vendors across seven market segments, position ISG as a neutral authority amid surging cloud consultancy demand.
AI and Edge Computing Boost Prospects
Generative AI investments are emerging as a key growth driver, with firms seeking external expertise to implement complex infrastructure. ISG has rebranded as an AI-centric advisor, while edge computing—fueled by IoT expansion—further expands its addressable market. The company’s proprietary market data and rankings, like its "CX Star Performer" awards, influence billion-dollar investments, solidifying its role as an industry arbiter. As businesses adopt FinOps frameworks to optimize cloud spending and prioritize cybersecurity, ISG’s diversified expertise positions it to capitalize on these trends, potentially unlocking new growth phases.
