Email domain

@ibm.com

IBM spans enterprise hybrid cloud, consulting, infrastructure, software (including Red Hat), and research. Because IBM is heavily channel-driven, partners, system integrators, and software vendors frequently need to find direct email addresses for client partners, brand sales leaders, and product owners. Recruiters and journalists covering enterprise AI also lean on the format. IBM uses ibm.com as a single global domain with first.last as the consistent pattern across geographies.
