SHORT INTRODUCTION TO IBM

For more than a century IBM has been dedicated to every client's success and to creating innovations that matter for the world. We have nearly 400,000 employees and do business in more than 175 countries. IBM is pioneering many of the technologies that are driving global business and societal progress — data and analytics, cognitive computing, cloud, mobile, social and security. In 2015, we invested more than 6 percent of our revenue on research and development aimed at making a positive and meaningful impact around the world. For the 23rd consecutive year, IBM led the U.S. list of patent recipients, once again breaking the 7,000 threshold.

"Transformation is not the same as change. The latter, by definition, is fleeting; the former, lasting. Change is something that happens to you, a wave that you may or may not catch. Transformation is something you build through sustained effort. It is driven by the key secular shifts of the era, and it leaves in its wake not just ripples, but lasting structures."
