Cognizant announced that it has completed the previously announced acquisition of the French operations of EI-Technologies, a Paris-based digital technology consulting firm and leading independent Salesforce specialist in France.
The company said that EI-Technologies’ more than 300 employees in France will now join Cognizant, complementing its global Salesforce practice and expanding client resources in Europe.
“We’re determined to help our clients become fully digital, data-enabled, customer-centric businesses. Cloud has changed the way IT is delivered across infrastructure, applications and platforms, and is one of our strategic focus areas,” said Brian Humphries, Cognizant CEO. “EI-Technologies, based in France, would not only support our effort to further scale our international business but also add Salesforce expertise and capabilities to our cloud management portfolio.”
“We’re excited at the prospect of bringing our expertise and deep relationships within the Salesforce ecosystem together with Cognizant’s rich knowledge and extensive capabilities in digital transformation as a whole,” said Béchara Raad, founder and CEO of EI-Technologies. “Joining Cognizant would enable us to address a wider range of client needs — including automation, artificial intelligence, customer experience design and more — that are emerging in the digital economy, and to pursue projects on a larger scale.”
Founded in 2008, EI-Technologies has been recognized in France by Salesforce for its client solutions, receiving the Salesforce Award for specialist partner in 2016 and 2017, as well as the Salesforce Award for most innovative project and partner in 2018.
