The aim of KPMG’s Global Lighthouse is to provide a hub of expertise, and to develop common approaches at global level, which will help KPMG clients throughout the world to take full advantage of the rapidly developing opportunities related to artificial intelligence and Data and Analytics.

As Richard Perrin, Partner and Head of Advisory at KPMG in Romania comments: “Already the KPMG Lighthouse concept is making a strong impact across the world, and I’m looking forward to developing it further on the Romanian market. The Global Lighthouse helps clients identify areas of their business where AI and Data and Analytics can bring clear benefits.”

As Adela Ciucioi, Partner, Head of Technology, Media & Telecom adds: “I am very excited about KPMG in Romania’s accreditation to the Global Lighthouse - following efforts and experience accumulated in the field in the last few years and also taking into consideration our plans for future development. The power and functionality available from today’s analytics and AI services can significantly transform organizations’ business processes, putting them in a stronger position for future growth. KPMG professionals are focused on helping clients to be competitive and compliant throughout their digital transformation.”

The Lighthouse Center of Excellence at KPMG in Romania, like in other KPMG member firms, brings together professionals from all three of KPMG’s functions- Audit, Tax and Advisory- who work in coordinated teams with tech professionals to support clients in developing AI and data analytics solutions to help their businesses.
