The tagline of the company got launched in 2010. 'People matter, results count' is the slogan
of the company. It tells us that the technology company is nothing without the people
working behind it.
In 1990 Cap Gemini Sogeti acquired the UK company Hoskyns Group, the European
leader in IT outsourcing and managed services.
In 1996, the name was simplified to Cap Gemini, and the firm launched a new group
logo. All operating companies worldwide were re-branded to operate as Cap Gemini.
Ernst & Young Consulting was acquired by Cap Gemini in 2000. It simultaneously
integrated Gemini Consulting to form Cap Gemini Ernst & Young. In 2017, Cap
Gemini S.A. became Capgemini SE, and its Euronext ticker name similarly changed
from CAP GEMINI to CAPGEMINI.
Capgemini acquired frog design and Cambridge 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
this group and operate under the frog brand.
In June 2021, Capgemini partnered with Sanofi, Orange & Generali to launch
Future4care, a European start-up accelerator focused on digital healthcare. In 2021,
Capgemini acquired RXP Services and Acclimation in Australia to expand their
operations in Australia. Also in 2021, Capgemini acquired Australian company
Empired and its New Zealand subsidiary Intergen
Serge Kampf founded Sogeti, the company that would later become the Capgemini
Group, on October 1st of that year. At the helm of the Group for 45 years, Kampf
transformed the small company from southeastern France into a global industry
leader in IT services.
Born in Grenoble in 1934, Kampf received a double degree in Law and Economics
before beginning his career in 1960 at the General Direction of
Telecommunications in Paris. He then joined the Compagnie des Machines Bull,
one of the leading global computer manufacturers at the time.
Kampf created Sogeti on October 1st, 1967 with three former colleagues in a two-
room apartment converted into an office in Grenoble. In an era of technological and
cultural change, Sogeti provided a visionary offer of IT services, combining
technical and organizational consulting with customer proximity.
Thanks to Kampf’s strong initial choices, Sogeti enjoyed impressive growth. The
company was an early provider of IT outsourcing and consulting, and enabled
operational decentralization, financial independence, and total freedom from IT
manufacturers. This original and atypical strategy firmly established Sogeti in the
IT services landscape and allowed it to grow into a leader in Europe.
The years following the name change were ones of conquest: the winning of new
businesses, further development of consulting and services, moving into new
markets, forming major alliances, and going public in 1988.
During my 45 years at the head of the Group, there are many decisions I don’t
regret and some I’m very proud of! In the years to come, I want the Group to stay
true to its values and continue to strive to be the best
Serge Kampf
By 1989, the Group was seen as one of the world leaders in the IT sector. A
discreet but influential entrepreneur, visionary, and man of great intellectual rigor,
Serge Kampf stood out for his original management methods that made friends of
employees and built on his devotion to a collective project.
He was a visionary and demanding rigorous leader, but he was also reserved, loyal,
generous and considerate. All of the descriptions we have read honoring Serge
Kampf are incredibly apt. And those fortunate enough to have known him, his
family, friends and also, to a certain degree, the Group’s 180,000 employees can
testify to this. Serge was an exceptional man. He was captivating and left no one
indifferent. A leader who understood the evolution of our business from quite early
on, his life was an extraordinary journey. Over nearly fifty years, he built the
company from a two-room apartment in his hometown of Grenoble to being one of
the global leaders in the ultra-competitive world of IT services.
Trust, which extends to all levels that of clients, without whom nothing is
possible, but also the trust placed in our people and our teams, which engenders a
reciprocal feeling of responsibility for their actions and decisions.
More surprising in the context of a large group, Freedom and the spirit of
independence. As a value that was close to Serge’s heart, he felt that it should
govern not only relationships between the Group and our clients, but also with
our employees.
Team Spirit, or the ability to share the good and the bad with each other. For
Serge, Team Spirit also often meant generosity, or even loyalty, which many of
those who stood by his side bore witness to.
Modesty, which translates into the desire to focus on the essential, without jargon
or emphasis. In a world full of hyperbole, he was particularly distrustful of the
effects of fashion.
And finally, Fun, because despite his legendary demanding nature and his desire
to see his teams surpass themselves, he was also concerned that everyone felt
fulfilled and found pleasure in their work. Serge embodied these values with the
conviction that, at Capgemini, we formed a “separate” community within our
industry and that we would find success by being faithful to our principles.
Serge was also the perfect representation of what friendship could be. He was
a friend to his colleagues and a friend to the world of rugby. Ultimately, he
showed that you could create a global leader in business based on the principle
of friendship. Capgemini has lost its founder. As you can see from the
selection of remembrances on the following page, our pain is shared. All of the
Group’s teams, myself included, are committed to keeping Serge’s teachings in
mind: to continually strive to take Capgemini his Group further. This is how
we will honor his memory. We owe it to him.
This Annual Report embodies one of the last professional conversations that I
had with Serge. Always enthusiastic, Serge contributed to this document up to
the last minute. He especially valued reflecting on the past year and the
commitments and achievements of the men and women that make up
Capgemini.
“Serge Kampf was one of those people who believed in you and offered you the
opportunity to make a fresh start, on the condition that you put in the energy, talent and
commitment.”
“A great personality whose thoughts and actions benefited thousands of people across so
many regions! I was fortunate enough to have met him during one of his visits to India.”
Jean-Loup Dabadie, Scriptwriter, songwriter, member of L’Académie Française
Emmanuel Macron
The French Minister of the Economy, Industry and the Digital
Sector@EmmanuelMacron
“S. Kampf, industry leader and an exceptional entrepreneur, has left us. Our
thoughts are with his family and Capgemini employees.”
Serge Kampf founds Sogeti in 1967 in Grenoble. In 1975, with the acquisition of two IT
services companies, CAP and Gemini Computer Systems, we become a leader in Europe
with a presence in 21 countries.
The Group continues to grow and focus on fields ranging from capital investment
solutions to intellectual services. In 1989, internal restructuring, European expansion and
penetration into the American market enable Capgemini to become one of the global
leaders in this sector.
At the end of the ‘90s, Capgemini begins its development in India, which results in 85,000
employees by the end of 2015. In 2002, Serge Kampf hands the role of CEO over to Paul
Hermelin. In 2010, the Group adopts a new brand signature: “People matter, results
count.” This phrase expresses our singular vision that technology be developed by and for
its users in the service of business results. In 2012, after 45 years, Serge Kampf steps
down from his role as Chairman at Capgemini. He proposes Paul Hermelin as his
successor and remains active up until his passing away, as the Vice-Chairman of the
Board.
CHAPTER 3:
Until January 2021, he was also Head of Group Industrialization & Automation,
leading the competitiveness and industrialization of delivery of the Capgemini
portfolio. This involved leading the organization’s focus on building a
knowledge-driven delivery model and deploying intelligent automation to help
clients derive the best value.
Prior to this, from January 2016 to December 2018, Ashwin was CEO of
Capgemini in India, in charge of operations, delivery, capability development
and innovation across India.
Ashwin joined Capgemini in 2001 through the Ernst & Young acquisition.
He is a qualified Chartered Financial Analyst and holds a Master’s degree in
The company charges fees to its clients for its selection of services. Charges vary by type of
projects and individual clients. The revenue structure is value-driven which aims at providing
a premium proposition through crucial personal service. Its services are costly which is the
biggest cost driver. Capgemini is one of the world's largest consulting firms with revenue of
€11.9 billion which was raised in 2015.
Recent reports say that the company had plans to reach revenue growth at rates between
12.5% and 14.0% in 2020.
'We set objectives for 2020 that illustrate the resilience of our revenues, profitability and
organic free cash flow,' said Aiman Ezzat in his statement.
Geographic diversification of the client base has developed a lot in the past years which
have strengthened the stability of the business. The entire group always stays aware of a
deterioration in the financial environment which could weaken the attainment of its
objectives.
Capgemini Invent was launched in September 2018, as the design and consulting
brand of the Capgemini Group.
Located in more than 37 offices globally, Capgemini Invent includes more than
10,000 employees.
These include staff from frog design, which was acquired as part of the deal whereby
Altran became Capgemini Engineering, and now operates as "frog, part of Capgemini
Invent.
“ Employees from Fahrenheit 212, Idean, and June21, have been integrated into the
frog organization and Capgemini Invent”.

3.7 Sogeti
From January 2018 to May 2020, he served as Chief Operating Officer and prior to
this as Chief Financial Officer, from December 2012 to 2018.
From 2012 to 2020, Paul Hermelin served as the Group Chairman and CEO. He
joined Capgemini in 1993, and was appointed as its CEO in 2002. In May 2012,
Hermelin became chairman and CEO of the Capgemini Group. He succeeded Serge
Kampf, who served as the Vice Chairman of the Board until his death on 15 March
2016.
In May 2020, Aiman Ezzat succeeded Paul Hermelin as CEO. Paul Hermelin
continues as Chairman of the Board of Directors.
In December 2022, the consulting firm McKinsey & Company was alleged, amongst
other accusations, to have benefitted in France from special access and favorable
government treatment, including the awarding of lucrative government contracts.
The French media dubbed the scandal the "McKinsey Affair". Subsequently, a French
Senate Committee of Inquiry investigated the growing influence of private consulting
firms on public policy.
In February 2022 Senator Éliane Assassi questioned each consulting firm on their
activities on specific projects. She raised in particular the case of a former employee
of the Capgemini group, who had been appointed as head of the Elysée
correspondence service.
The service subsequently contracted Capgemini to reorganize its digital tools, with
the aim of setting up a system to automate mail reading to produce reports. "Is it not
embarrassing, from your point of view, that a former employee of Capgemini is
responsible for reviewing the correspondence service of the Élysée?", the senator
asked.
"It is not up to us to have an opinion on who, within the client organization, triggers
this type of service", replied Mathieu Dougados, executive director, and he suggested
the commission ask the Élysée.
However, the firm makes an exception vis-à-vis the State, by not applying certain
contractual clauses which prevent an employee from joining a client, "provided that
an ethical framework has been fixed", the director underlined.

business growth.

which are developed by the competitors too. Innovations are less frequent leading to
highs and lows in sales.
Competitive market – The IT market is competitive because there are many
emerging players focusing on low-cost values.
Seasonal Demand – The highly profitable goods are seasonal in nature and any
unlikely event during the boom period may affect the profits of the company.
Poor-quality products and Imitation of the counterfeit – The poor quality of the
products and the imitation of counterfeit products are a threat to Capgemini’s products
especially in low income and emerging markets.
Environment regulations – New environmental regulations which are under the
Paris agreement (2016) may act as a threat to certain product categories.
Shortage of skilled workforce – The shortage of people that are skilled in some
global markets may act as a threat for Capgemini for steady profit growth in those
markets.
