Surveys from the International Data Corporation (IDC) indicate that global investments in AI are expected to surpass $300 billion by 2026.

Brazilian multinational CI&T announced today (June 8) its official entry into the Claude Partner Network, the global ecosystem created by Anthropic to accelerate corporate adoption of its artificial intelligence models. This move positions the company as one of the primary implementation partners for Claude within the ecosystem of large global enterprises, backed by a goal to certify over 1,000 software engineers in Anthropic technologies.

With a three-decade track record in the digital transformation market and a strong presence in Latin America, North America, and EMEA, CI&T aims to transition AI projects from the experimentation stage to large-scale industrial production. The strategy relies on CI&T FLOW, the company's proprietary AI management system that already integrates the Claude Code tool, focused on automation and efficiency in the software development cycle. The new alliance will focus on co-developing vertical solutions for highly regulated and scalable sectors, such as financial services, retail, and consumer goods.

Surveys from the International Data Corporation (IDC) indicate that global investments in AI are expected to surpass $300 billion by 2026, with an increasing focus on operational efficiency and short-term return on investment. According to Cesar Gon, founder and CEO of CI&T, success in this new phase directly depends on the ability to transform a sea of technological possibilities into measurable and scalable business impact, a thesis the company intends to validate globally with its current workforce of over 8,000 technology professionals spread across 11 countries.
