The acquisition underscores Capgemini’s broader strategy to expand its AI-led services portfolio amid rising enterprise demand for automation and intelligent operations. Industry analysts view the deal as part of a larger trend among global IT and consulting firms investing in agentic AI capabilities to enhance efficiency, agility, and data-driven decision-making in business transformation initiatives.
