IBM is arguably the world's most influential company. Its global reach and commitment to innovation has allowed it to take centre stage at some of mankind's greatest scientific discoveries and technological advances.

Take Neil Armstrong's era-defining moon walk for example, or the rescue of the ill-fated Apollo 13 mission. In both cases, IBM's technology and people were integral to success. The invention of the mainframe computer, nanotechnology, viewing the world at the sub-atomic level, and 'on demand business' are all milestones of innovation. And all of them made possible by IBM.

Now we continue to innovate, helping organisations large and small to improve business performance in areas as diverse as Human Resources, Change Management and International Business Transformation. Innovation takes many forms though - Internally at IBM it translates into a progressive workplace, embracing diversity in all its forms. We also promote flexibility wherever possible and continually strive for an effective balance between work and the rest of your life.

IBM is more than a global icon - it's a company that makes a wide-ranging positive and significant difference every single day. It's a company that continues to innovate, to push the boundaries and to achieve great things for its clients and its people. And it's also a company that lives off a constant flow of fresh ideas.
