AI Ambitions at Risk as Only 14% of Enterprises Fully Realize Cloud Value, NTT DATA Study Finds26.3.2026 14:00:00 EET | Press release
NTT DATA, a global leader in AI, digital business and technology services, today released its new report, Cloud-led innovation in the era of AI: The new rules for driving value with cloud, revealing that just 14% of organizations have reached the highest level of cloud maturity despite nearly two decades of cloud adoption.

While 99% of organizations say AI is increasing demand for cloud investment, 88% say current cloud investment levels are putting AI, cloud-native and modernization initiatives at risk.

Cloud leaders, or organizations that in
