History
Chetan Dube, IPsoft’s founder and CEO, believed that the IT infrastructure and business operations of the future would be managed not by people but by expert systems. He envisioned a world in which mundane engineering and administrative chores would be automated,
freeing business professionals, engineers and technologists to focus on creative endeavors and innovation.
Within a few years of its founding, IPsoft established a presence in India providing remote IT infrastructure managed services and shortly thereafter opened its first European outpost in London. As growth continued to accelerate, new offices followed. First in California then Amsterdam and beyond. In 2009 alone, IPsoft opened its Frankfurt, Austin, Chicago and Stockholm offices and expanded its New York and Bangalore offices. More recently, IPsoft entered the Asia Pacific region, opening offices in Singapore, Tokyo and Sydney.
In 2014, following 15 years of development, IPsoft launched Amelia, the first cognitive agent to interact like a human. Amelia opened a new chapter in IPsoft’s growth and placed IPsoft at the forefront of a technology enabled revolution that promises to change how we live and work forever: the age of the Smart Machine.
