Tredence, a global leader in data science and AI solutions, has been honored as the 2025 Databricks Growth Partner of the Year for the Americas. This prestigious award, presented at the annual Data + AI Summit, underscores Tredence's significant achievements and innovative approach to driving scalable AI transformation across various industries. The recognition is a testament to Tredence's successful partnership with Databricks, which empowers enterprises to accelerate value realization and enhance decision intelligence at scale by bridging the 'Last Mile' in AI.

Over the past year, Tredence has significantly deepened its collaboration with Databricks. This strengthened partnership focuses on assisting enterprises in modernizing their data estates, unlocking real-time insights, and effectively operationalizing AI across crucial business functions. The joint efforts aim to move organizations beyond the experimental phase of AI, enabling them to implement and scale AI solutions that directly contribute to profitability, efficiency, and innovation.

The collaboration between Tredence and Databricks has yielded substantial, measurable impacts for joint customers spanning diverse sectors such as retail, CPG, healthcare, TMT (Technology, Media, and Telecommunications), Travel & Hospitality, and industrial manufacturing. For instance, in retail, their solutions have helped realize over $58 million in Retail Media Network (RMN) revenue, reduced platform licensing costs by 30-50%, and achieved a 3-5 times increase in time-to-insight for marketing and CX teams. Consumer goods companies have benefited from a 40% reduction in platform costs across international markets through Lakehouse modernization and 25-35% acceleration in planning cycles.

The impact extends to the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries. A major healthcare provider, through a strategic cloud migration facilitated by Tredence and Databricks, achieved 35% faster data processing. In the pharmaceutical sector, the deployment of a Smart Manufacturing Command Center resulted in a 19% reduction in maintenance costs, a 12% boost in throughput, and a 40% acceleration in root cause analysis. These examples highlight the practical application and tangible benefits of their joint solutions.

Tredence's commitment to delivering these transformative outcomes is backed by its elite partner status with Databricks and a significant investment in a dedicated Databricks Business Unit. Furthermore, the company boasts a growing pool of over 600 Databricks-certified practitioners, ensuring the delivery of repeatable, scalable, and outcome-focused AI transformations for global enterprises. This expertise is crucial in bridging what Tredence terms the 'Last Mile' in AI – translating AI strategy into real business progress.
