Even though IBM doesn't seems very sexy startup. But they survived 100+ years and trying to find way to stay in business.

They learn and adapt. They contribute significantly to Open Source. Now they are understanding importance of UI/UX design and trying to invest heavily on it.

Lot of big name startup even though succeed for short or medium term but struggling a lot in long run. I really enjoy reading the below book about IBM

Who Says Elephants Can't Dance? by Louis V., Jr. Gerstner (Outsider came to IBM as CEO) IBM is nearly in verge of collapse during early 90s. And he pulled it off.

I would like to see IBM release something similar to Material Design / Bootstrap - that is home grown from their own design experts.

Material and Bootstrap are very different, so I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, but FWIW, IBM does have some resources available, including what appears to be working code in the "animation library" https://www.ibm.com/design/language/resources

Yup, the IBM Design Language is a growing library/guidelines for all new IBM Designed products. Still a work in progress, but there is finally a unified look/feel/function for future apps/sites.

They haven't had to try too hard to find they way. They sold to big business 100 years ago and they still do today. The fact that computers became prominent in smaller businesses doesn't change their success with the biggest.
