Someone has written this template:Template:Major information technology consulting and outsourcing companiesand included it in various places; see for eg. at the end of the Capgemini article. Whilst it looks to me like spam, I am not 100% certain so don't want to delete it. (Can't see what other purpose it would serve, though.) Regards, @GrayanOne.
I have removed the new section titled 'Relations between Capgemini and the public sector?' It may or may not be relevant, but it is currently incomprehensible and needs rewriting. If this section is added, it needs to explain:- what is 'the McKinsey case'?- what happened?- who was involved (is it only Capgemini France)?- what is the concern?- why is this notable?The final sentence is not a complete sentence, and the English needs to be improved throughout.Masato.harada (talk)17:30, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Rather than get involved in edit wars (which some anonymous editors seem to wish), I have revised this section, including the tortuous English, and included a WP link to the McKinsey affair. I hope it can now be understood by those who are not familiar with detailed French political news. For avoidance of doubt, I have no conflict of interest and resent that unfounded allegation. I am trying to get this article to encyclopedic quality, and the previous auto-translations from French did not do that.Masato.harada (talk)13:00, 22 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your work on this article section. When I read it, I find this mention of "McKinsey" in the first paragraph and I don't know why it's being mentioned. If I understand right, the company McKinsey is not related to CapGemini, correct? And the reason it is being mentioned is that it was the trigger for a more general investigation by the French government that also covered CapGemini, correct? (If so, I can tweak the section to be clearer.)mcld (talk)07:49, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
 | Thisedit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Hello, as part of my work for Capgemini I have declared my Conflict of Interest, and would like to propose some updates to the article; I am happy to collaborate with the community to help move this forward.
1. In theHistory section, please replace this paragraph:
In 2018, they acquired thePhiladelphia-based digital customer engagement company LiquidHub forUS$500 million to assist Capgemini's digital andcloud growth in North America. Earlier Capgemini acquisitions included Kanbay for $1.2 billion andiGate for $4 billion.[1]
With these two paragraphs which provide a clearer chronology:
In 2006, Capgemini acquiredKanbay for $1.25 billion, which expanded its footprint and capabilities in India.[1]
In 2015 it acquired the U.S.-based technology and services companyiGate for $4 billion.[1] In 2018, the company acquired thePhiladelphia-based digital customer engagement company LiquidHub forUS$500 million to assist Capgemini's digital andcloud growth in North America.[2]
2.History section, final sentence: Replace "As of 2024, Capgemini has over 338,000 employees in approximately 50 countries, with around 194,400 inIndia.[1]"
with "As of 2025, Capgemini has over 340,000 employees in approximately 50 countries.[1]"
3. Please replace the heading "Services" with "Subdivisions and services", which more accurately describes that section.
4. In thatSubdivisions and services section, it seems more logical to list the items chronologically, by date of creation or spin-off. Therefore, please begin by moving theSogeti subsection to the top of that section and reword the body text of the subsection (underneath the "Main article: Sogeti" template) slightly to add and cite the date, as follows:
Sogeti is a wholly ownedsubsidiary of the Capgemini Group,[1] spun off in 2002.[2] It is aninformation technology consulting company specializing in technology and engineering professional services.
Thanks very much for any assistance.MN.Capgemini.se (talk)20:14, 23 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
| Thisedit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Hello again; as previously stated, I have declared my Conflict of Interest with Capgemini, and would like to propose some additional updates to the article.
I have broken them down into four points and tried to explain the reasoning as clearly as possible. If anything is unclear, please let me know so I can further clarify and answer any lingering questions.
1. In theHistory section, the paragraph on Altran ("In 2019, Capgemini acquiredAltran ....") is slightly confusing, and missing independent citations and pertinent information. Please replace it with the following:
In 2019, Capgemini acquiredAltran, a provider of engineering andR&D services and design innovation.[1] It was the largest acquisition in the company's history, bringing Capgemini's total employee count to over 250,000.[2] As part of the acquisition, Capgemini acquiredfrog design andCambridge Consultants, which were integrated into Capgemini Invent; several other recent acquisitions in the design and digital space, including staff from Fahrenheit 212, Idean, and June21, have been merged into that group and operate under the frog brand.[3][4] In 2021, Capgemini grouped the engineering and R&D activities of the Altran brand with Capgemini Digital Engineering Services and formed a new division,Capgemini Engineering.[5]
2. Please add this information to theHistory section, after the paragraph beginning "In June 2021":
In 2023 and 2024, Capgemini scaled up itsgenerative AI offerings,[1] partnering withGoogle Cloud,Microsoft,[2]Amazon Web Services (AWS),[3]SAP,[4] andMistral AI.[5]
3. Please add this information to theHistory section after that paragraph:
In 2024, Capgemini acquired Syniti, anenterprise data management company specializing indata quality,data migration, andregulatory compliance.[1]
4. In theSubdivisions and services section, rather than leaving the "Capgemini Engineering" subsection completely blank after the 'main article' template, please add the following text as a general descriptor:
In 2021, Capgemini grouped the engineering and R&D activities of itsAltran brand with Capgemini Digital Engineering Services and formed a new division,Capgemini Engineering.[1]
Thank you very much, and let me know if there are any questions.MN.Capgemini.se (talk)22:39, 30 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Likeanechointheforest, I see you recently removed part of the uncited portion of the problematic paragraph about Altran[1] noted above. Would you consider performing the rest of that edit request concerning that paragraph (adding citations and an explanation of what Altran was), and the other three edit requests as well?MN.Capgemini.se (talk)15:20, 15 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
| Thisedit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
As in previous posts, I have declared my COI.
Likeanechointheforest andPK650, I have some additional requests to help this Wikipedia article by clarifying a few items.
My suggestions are as follows, and I would appreciate any assistance and feedback.
1. In the second paragraph of theHistory section, the sentence beginning "In 1975" is garbled and needs copy editing. Using the same citation, please replace that sentence with:
In 1975, having acquired CAP (Centre d'Analyse et de Programmation) and Gemini ComputerSystems, and having resolved a dispute with the similarly namedCAP UK over the international use of the name 'CAP', Sogeti renamed itself as CAP Gemini Sogeti.[1]
2. In the fifth paragraph of theHistory section, the firsttwo sentences (beginning "Ernst & Young Consulting was acquired by") are likewise awkward, and need combining and copy editing. Please replace thosetwo sentences with:
Cap Gemini acquiredErnst & Young Consulting in 2000 and integrated it with Gemini Consulting to form Cap Gemini Ernst & Young.[1]
3. In theSubdivisions and services section, the subsection onCapgemini Invent is confusing and largely uncited. Using the same citations, plus adding three missing citations, please replace the text of that section with:
Capgemini Invent was launched in September 2018 as the design and consulting brand of the Capgemini Group.[1][2] It is the rebranding and enlargement of Capgemini Consulting, which had nearly doubled in size globally since 2014.[3] Located in more than 37 offices globally, Capgemini Invent includes more than 10,000 employees.[4] These include staff fromfrog design, Fahrenheit 212, Idean, and June21.[5]
4. TheManagement section is confusing, overly wordy, and outdated. Please replace the text with the following:
The Capgemini Group Executive Committee consists of 34 members.[1]
Aiman Ezzat has been the group's CEO since 2020, having been at the company for more than 20 years, including as COO from 2018 to 2020 and CFO from 2012 to 2018.[2]
Paul Hermelin is chairman of the company's board of directors.[2] He was chairman and CEO from 2012 to 2020,[3] having been appointed CEO in 2002[3] and having been at the company since 1993.[4]
Hermelin succeededSerge Kampf, the founder and prior head of the company, who stepped down in 2012,[5] thereafter serving as vice chairman of the board until his death in 2016.[6]
Thank you very much.MN.Capgemini.se (talk)01:31, 5 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Already doneLikeanechointheforest (talk)17:23, 5 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]Hi,S0091, I notice there has been a lot of disruptive editing and edit-warring from a couple of related IPs in the past 6 days.
Could you please request for the article to be semi-protected due to ongoing IP disruption and edit-warring?
Could you also restore the edits made byPK650 here[2], which you seem to have inadvertently reverted?
Thank you for your efforts to clean up the article.MN.Capgemini.se (talk)23:49, 11 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
| Thisedit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Hi, there are currently three Capgemini subdivisions missing from theSubdivisions section. Could those three missing divisions please be added, with a subsection for each? Here are the three items:
1. Please add a subtitle and subsection onCapgemini Research Institute, placed chronologically after Sogeti, with this as the text:
Capgemini Research Institute is the company's in-house think tank,[1] launched in 2012.[2] It produces reports on current trends and concerns in business and technology, based on research, data, and surveys.[3]
2. Please add a subtitle and subsection onApplied Innovation Exchange, placed chronologically after Capgemini Research Institute, with this as the text:
Applied Innovation Exchange (AIE) is Capgemini's network ofinnovation labs,[1] and was launched in 2016.[2] The labs enable clients to exchange with designers, industry experts, business and technology partners, research organizations, and startups,[3] and Capgemini has AIEs worldwide.[2]
3. Please add a subtitle and subsection onCapgemini Invent, placed chronologically after Applied Innovation Exchange, with this as the text:
Capgemini Invent was launched in 2018 as the design and consulting subdivision of the Capgemini Group.[1][2] It is the rebranding and enlargement of Capgemini Consulting.[2] As of 2023, the subdivision had approximately 10,000 employees in 60 locations worldwide.[1] These include staff fromfrog design, Fahrenheit 212, Idean, and June21.[1]
PK650, since you have assisted in the past, could you evaluate these?
Thank you very much, and let me know if there are any questions.MN.Capgemini.se (talk)22:02, 13 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, as previously stated, I have declared my Conflict of Interest with Capgemini, and would like to propose a few edits to the article.
1.History section, last sentence ("In July 2025, ..."}: Please add the descriptor "technology outsourcing firm" before "WNS Global Services", using this as the citation:https://www.reuters.com/en/frances-capgemini-buy-business-transformation-firm-wns-33-billion-2025-07-07/ to replace the "Bru Times" citation (which sounds like a press release). Please also add a wiklink toWNS Global Services.
So the sentence should read:
In July 2025, Capgemini acquired technology outsourcing firmWNS Global Services in a $3.3 billion cash deal.[1][2]
2. Please alsoadd to that same paragraph, using the same citation:
The acquisition allows Capgemini to expand itsgenerative AI offerings,[1] which it had announced in 2023.[2]
Reuters WNS was invoked but never defined (see thehelp page).3.History section: Please add the following as a separate paragraph in the appropriate chronological location:
In January 2022, the company set up an internationalquantum computing lab, called Capgemini Quantum Lab or Capgemini Q-Lab, in collaboration withIBM.[1] It can be used by Capgemini's clients to build in-house quantum computing applications and licensable technologies.[1]
Thank you, and let me know if there are any questions.MN.Capgemini.se (talk)21:56, 9 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to request a new section at the bottom of the article, titledSports sponsorships. I have made a draft of it, in the box below. (Please convert my semi-colon to a level-2 heading.)
Proposed new section |
|---|
