Autonomy has dual headquarters in Cambridge, UK, and San Francisco, US, with global offices spanning North America, Western Europe, Australia, Asia-Pacific, Japan and China.
Autonomy has grown from two people in a small office in Cambridge to become the largest software company in the UK and a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise. Founded on a vision to dramatically change the way in which we interact with information and computers, Autonomy has revolutionised the IT IT industry and is considered a benchmark for innovation and technology excellence. By identifying patterns in data and acting on that knowledge, Autonomy enables organisations to penetrate their information silos, derive maximum value from corporate assets and automate a raft of operations. Autonomy is Europe’s second-largest pure software firm and the leader in its field, with more than 20,000 customers, including blue-chip organisations such as Bloomberg, HP, GSK, Shell and the BBC.
