Accenture has opened its Innovation Center for Oracle at the Oracle headquarters in Redwood Shores. The Accenture Innovation Center for Oracle is dedicated to the development of new ideas and innovative solutions based on Oracle's Server Technologies infrastructure and Oracle(r) Applications software. The center will initially focus on the development of leading-edge service-oriented reference architectures and reference applications based on Oracle Fusion Middleware.

"The center is the first of its kind to be located on the Oracle campus and is designed to help accelerate the development, delivery and commercialization of innovative Oracle-based solutions, and promote collaboration between Accenture, Oracle and our clients," said Jim Hayes, managing director of Accenture's global Oracle practice. "Building on the long-standing relationship between Accenture and Oracle, the center is an important step forward in our ongoing efforts to help clients derive maximum value from their Oracle solutions."

The Accenture Innovation Center for Oracle will enable Accenture to capture and distribute market-leading Oracle Applications and Oracle Server Technologies Infrastructure product expertise through collaboration and direct links with Oracle's research & development teams, Accenture's global delivery center network of more than 40 delivery centers, and Accenture Technology Labs throughout the world.
