CGI announced the completion of its previously announced acquisition of Apside, a leading provider of digital and engineering services based in France. This acquisition significantly consolidates CGI's presence in France, as well as other European countries and Morocco, and strengthens its capabilities, particularly in manufacturing and financial services. Apside is recognized for its in-depth industry knowledge and technology expertise in areas such as data, AI, cloud, and cybersecurity.
With this acquisition, over 2,500 professionals have joined CGI, including nearly 2,200 in France. This substantial addition of talent enhances CGI's capacity to support clients in their most complex transformations and enriches its technology offering. The integration of Apside's engineering services expands CGI's portfolio of end-to-end services, aligning with its strategic growth objectives.
The combined entities share a common culture and values focused on innovation, responsibility, and client proximity, which is expected to facilitate a smooth integration. This strategic move reinforces CGI's 'Build and Buy' growth strategy, expanding its market reach and technological capabilities in key regions, and solidifying its position as one of the largest independent IT and business consulting services firms globally.
