Despite the newness of our name, Kyndryl is a well-established, global IT supplier.

Since becoming an independent company in November 2021 (previously part of IBM), the Kyndryl team has expanded its skills and offering to address the company’s larger alliance market with its ecosystem strategy.

In pursuit of our vision, we have the willingness to create new areas of expertise, and that has led to the infusion of new talent and ideas into the business to support us as we continue to grow.

Kyndryl also celebrated a major milestone with the opening of its new Ottawa office. This regional expansion reflected our commitment to Canada across all regions and our great respect for the Ottawa tech community.

We are excited about all the ways we’ll be able to use this new space. It won’t just be for internal collaboration, but also to engage with partners and customers. Our Kyndryl team in Ottawa is committed to leveraging the space and our presence in the city to give back to the community.
