As Google Cloud Next<\/a> opened today in San Francisco, Accenture<\/a> announced its intent to acquire Cirruseo<\/a>, a French cloud consulting firm that specializes in Google Cloud intelligence services. The companies did not share the terms of the deal.<\/p>\n

Accenture <\/a> says that Cirruseo\u2019s strength and deep experience in Google\u2019s cloud-based artificial intelligence solutions should help as Accenture expands its own AI practice. Google TensorFlow and other intelligence solutions<\/a> are a popular approach to AI and machine learning, and the purchase should help give Accenture a leg up in this area, especially in the French market.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe addition of Cirruseo would be a significant step forward in our growth strategy in France, bringing a strong team of Google Cloud specialists to Accenture,\u201d Olivier Girard, Accenture\u2019s geographic unit managing director for France and Benelux said in a statement.<\/p>\n

With the acquisition, should it pass French regulatory muster, the company would add a team of 100 specialists trained in Google Cloud and G Suite to the an existing team of 2,600 Google specialists worldwide.<\/p>\n

The company sees this as a way to enhance its artificial intelligence and machine learning expertise in general, while giving it a much stronger market placement in France in particular and the EU in general.<\/p>\n

As the company stated, there are some hurdles before the deal becomes official. \u201cThe acquisition requires prior consultation with the relevant works councils and would be subject to customary closing conditions,\u201d Accenture indicated in a statement. Should all that come to pass, then Cirruseo will become part of Accenture.<\/p>\n
