Montreal, October 3, 2024 – Audensiel continues its expansion in the North American market with the strategic acquisition of the Digital Factory, Cybersecurity, DevOps and Data activities of Maltem Canada, a leading local firm based in Montreal.
A recognized digital leader in the Quebec market, Maltem Canada distinguishes itself for its ability to support customers in their strategic digital activities by setting up customized service centers on their premises and offers a complete range of coaching and premium training. This acquisition enables Audensiel to benefit from proven local expertise, consolidating its role as the preferred partner of large and medium-sized Canadian companies.
A year after opening its Montreal office with the support of Sagard MidCap (a key shareholder in Audensiel, active in North America and Europe), Audensiel has made its first acquisition in the region, and now brings together nearly 100 specialists under the Audensiel Canada banner. This international development follows successful growth in Spain, Mexico, Belgium, and Luxembourg, while its operations in France remain just as dynamic. In fact, for over ten years, Audensiel has maintained a continuous annual growth rate of nearly 30%, supported in its development by its partners Sagard and Capza. With 1,800 employees and nearly 200 million euros ($290M CAD) in revenue, Audensiel continues to invest and strengthen its positions in its areas of expertise (data/AI, digital factory, cloud, and cybersecurity) to support its clients and partners in their transformation challenges.
“I’m delighted with this partnership, which enables us to join forces with a group recognized in the digital transformation market and with whom we share values and an entrepreneurial culture. This collaboration will bring significant commercial and innovation synergies,” said Marc Giraud-Sauveur, General Manager of Maltem Canada. “Joining Audensiel is a logical and natural progression that will allow Maltem Canada to expand its footprint within a high-performance international environment and continue offering excellent career prospects to its employees.”
“This acquisition consolidates Audensiel’s position in Canada in the fields of digital transformation, cybersecurity, DevOps, and data,” said Nicolas Pacault, President of Audensiel. “We are delighted to be working with the Maltem Canada team within the group, who are experts in serving major Canadian accounts. This partnership is perfectly aligned with our values and our strategic plan to expand our activities.”
