Accenture to Acquire Data Consultancy Sentelis

June 16 2020

Global management consultancy Accenture has entered an agreement to acquire data firm Sentelis, which is headquartered in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France, and specialises in designing data and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. Terms of the deal have not been disclosed.

Athina KaniouraFounded in 2011, Sentelis employs more than 50 professionals, including data and AI advisors, enterprise architects and engineers. The firm's services relate to strategy and management consulting for industrial planning, maturity analysis and proof of concept; as well as change management and planning for continuous improvement.

Sentelis will join the Accenture Applied Intelligence unit, scaling AI for clients. Isabelle Regnier and Jean-Baptiste Ceccaldi, respectively Executive Director and President of Sentelis, say the buy would provide a 'unique opportunity' to extend their firm's approach to new sectors.

Athina Kanioura (pictured), Chief Analytics Officer and Global Lead for Accenture Applied Intelligence, comments: 'Sentelis's data strategy, architecture and engineering skills align seamlessly with Accenture's focus on industrialized, end-to-end solutions. With the addition of Sentelis, we would see even greater opportunity to accelerate how our clients gain value from data and AI across their business'.
