UOB and Accenture have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate on the application of advanced technologies, including generative and agentic artificial intelligence, over the next three years. This marks Accenture’s first strategic AI collaboration with a Singapore bank. Through the partnership, UOB will utilize Accenture’s AI Refinery
A key part of the collaboration focuses on upskilling UOB’s workforce. Employees will participate in specialized training programs through Accenture’s LearnVantage platform, gaining skills to implement and manage new technologies within their roles. UOB views this as essential to maximizing the impact of AI across its organization. Julie Sweet, Chair and CEO of Accenture, expressed, “We are proud to partner with UOB to help them realize their vision for the future of banking by scaling generative and agentic AI at speed, and by helping their people develop valuable advanced technology skills. Together, we will create more engaging experiences for UOB customers and drive new levels of efficiency, value and growth.”
