The journey of NTT DATA Group Corporation is a significant strand in the larger tapestry of Japan's telecommunications and technological evolution. Its origins can be traced back to 1967, when Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Public Corporation (NTT) established its Data Communications Bureau. This was a period of rapid economic growth in Japan, and the nascent field of data communication, merging telecommunication technology with computing, was beginning to take shape. The bureau was NTT's initial foray into what would become the information services industry, focusing on developing systems for social infrastructure and various computer systems within Japan.

A pivotal moment arrived in 1985 with the privatization of NTT. This monumental shift in Japan's telecommunications landscape set the stage for further specialization and expansion. Three years later, in 1988, the Data Communications division was officially spun off from NTT to form NTT DATA Communications Systems Corporation. This newly independent entity quickly established itself as a major force in Japan's information and communication services sector. Embracing the mission to be a 'value creator who generates energy from information,' NTT DATA embarked on developing and expanding its IT services across diverse fields, including public administration, finance, and various industries. It was a pioneer in introducing innovative technologies to the Japanese market, such as smart cards and early forms of virtual shopping malls, demonstrating its commitment to pushing the boundaries of information technology. Over the subsequent decades, NTT DATA has pursued a path of consistent growth, both organically and through strategic acquisitions globally, transforming from a domestic leader into a significant international player in IT services and consulting. This expansion has seen the company establish a presence in over 50 countries, serving a vast array of clients, including a majority of the Fortune Global 100 companies.
